LOOKING AT THE OPPONENTS - COLLEGE OF IDAHO: The Yotes enter 2019-20 ranked third in NAIA Division II. They are coming off back-to-back semifinal appearances. They return All-American and Cascade defensive player of the year Talon Pickney (12ppg, 5apg). Nate Bruneel (13ppg, 5 rpg) brings experience. The Yotes will rely on young talent that will see expanded roles this season as well as a mix of several junior college transfers. This is the first of two meetings between the two schools this season. 

LOOKING AT THE OPPONENTS - SALISH KOOTENAI COLLEGE: This will be the sixth meeting between the two schools. The series began in 2016 and the Bulldogs are 5-0 against the Lady Bison.
