Players to Watch
ImageSF Mitch Galos, RS Junior, 6'8", 229lbs, 74 OVR | 11.9 ppg, 48% FG% Season Stats -- QUESTIONABLE (Ankle)
Galos's hot start from the field this season reflects in the Vikings' 2-0 record in conference play thus far. He has made big improvements in all shooting categories following a sophomore campaign where he finished shooting 30% from three and 34% overall, currently holding 40% and 44% percentages in the 3PM and FGM categories. Foul trouble has been key from Galos so far this season, which perhaps has kept him from reaching his peak potential so far this season. Galos is currently recovering from a minor ankle sprain.

ImagePG Trace Hines, Sophomore, 6'1" 178lbs | 9.4 ppg, 44% 3P%, 1.2 spg Season Stats
Despite coming of the bench, Trace Hines provides a spark every team in the Big Sky would like to have coming off their bench. Hines is biggest threat behind the three point line that the Vikings have, while his defensive capabilities are an undervalued part of his game.

PF Renard Weaver, RS Senior, 6'6", 230lbs, 66 OVR
C Kurt Pekkola, Freshman, 6'10", 236lbs, 73 OVR


Players to Watch
ImagePF Renard Weaver, RS Senior, 6'6", 230lbs, 66 OVR | 15.0 ppg, 49% FG, 39% 3PT Season Stats
Weaver is an entertaining stretch 4 with a verstatile offensive toolkit. Despite being undersized at his position, Weaver makes up for that with his ability around the rim on the offensive side of the ball.

ImageSG Collier Ruffin, Sophomore, 6'6", 214lbs, 74 OVR | 5.3 ppg, 29% FG Season Stats
Ruffin has taken a step back from his freshman all-conference outing last year for the Bobcats. As the player that Huse and the Bobcats hoped to build around, Montana State is doing whatever they can to snap Ruffin out of his 29% shooting slump.
