Untested, no. Undefeated, yes.
The No. 1 College of Southern Idaho men’s basketball team capped its first perfect regular season in nearly 50 years on Saturday, beating No. 7 Salt Lake Community College 99-88 in front of a sold-out home crowd for its fifth win over a top-10 team this season — the most in the country.
Isaiah Moses scored 29 points, Nate Meithof and Rob Whaley each added 16 points, and Joel Armotrading chipped in 11 points and 10 rebounds for the Golden Eagles (29-0 overall, 17-0 Scenic West Athletic Conference). It’s the program’s first undefeated regular season since 1976-77.
SLCC finished 0-3 against CSI and 26-1 against the rest of its schedule. The only other loss was earlier this month at Snow College.
