WHAT'S NEXT: Boise State women's basketball will remain in the Treasure Valley with a contest against Wyoming on Tuesday, Feb. 18 in ExtraMile Arena. The game, which is one of two home games remaining for the Blue and Orange, will tip off at 6:30 p.m. MT and will be broadcast on the Mountain West Network and 670 KBOI AM.

SCOUTING THE COWGIRLS: The Cowgirls (16-9, 10-3 MW) enter the game tied for second in the league standings. This will be the second matchup between the two teams on the season, with Wyoming defeating the Broncos (15-12, 5-9 MW) 79-45 in Laramie, Wyo., on Feb. 1. The Cowgirls have one of the best post players in the league in Allyson Fertig, who leads the MW in points per game (19.6), rebounds per game (10.5) and field goal percentage (60.3%). As a team, Wyoming leads the conference in field goal percentage (46.4%) and assists per game (16.1). The Broncos have had a lot of homecourt success against the Cowgirls, boasting a 14-3 all-time record in ExtraMile Arena.

ON A ROLL: Tatum Thompson finished with 18 points against Fresno State on Saturday, marking the junior's 10th consecutive game in double figures. The Woodinville, Wash., native is averaging 14.6 points per game in conference play while shooting 51.4% from the floor, the third-best among MW players. Thompson is also corralling 8.1 rebounds per game in league contests, the fourth-highest mark.

BENCH PRODUCTION: Boise State has gotten deep into its bench this season, recording back-to-back games with 37 points from its reserves. The Broncos, who are ranked ninth nationally with 29.4 bench points per game, have scored 30+ points from their reserves in 12 games and have totaled 40+ bench points in five contests.

GETTING TO THE LINE: Boise State is shooting 77.9% (166-of-213) from the free throw line through 14 conference games. The program record for free throw percentage in league play is 74.7% (230-of-308), set in the 1988-89 season. Five Broncos are currently shooting over 80% from the line on the season (min. 10 attempts): Teryn Gardner (100%), Mya Hansen (89.1%), Mary Kay Naro (86.7%), Natalie Pasco (85.4%) and Thompson (83.0%).

RACE TO THE TOP: Two Broncos are closing in on significant career milestones. Abby Muse is within sight of two MW all-time records – the Brentwood, Calif., native is 27 blocks away from becoming the league's all-time career blocks leader and is 53 rebounds away from becoming the conference's all-time rebounding leader. Naro is currently 38 assists from matching the program record of 616 career assists held by Yaiza Rodriguez (2013-17).
