UC Davis Looks to Snap Skid Against Idaho State in Non-Conference Finale POCATELLO, Idaho (Interstat) — The UC Davis Aggies will aim to halt a three-game losing streak when they visit the Idaho State Bengals in a non-conference men’s basketball matchup Sunday at Holt Arena. The Aggies (5-5) enter on the heels of a heartbreaking 79-78 home loss to Seattle on Wednesday, their third consecutive defeat. UC Davis has struggled on the road this season, with recent losses at Oregon and Hawaii. Idaho State (7-5) has found a rhythm, winning four of its last five games, including an 80-64 victory over Montana Tech on Thursday. The Bengals have been strong at home, boasting a 5-1 record in Pocatello this season. A key matchup will feature the teams’ lead guards. UC Davis will rely on Brayden Fagbemi, who is coming off a 15-point, 4-assist performance against Seattle. Over his last four games, the guard is averaging 9.3 points and 3.5 assists. Idaho State counters with Connor Hollenbeck, a consistent scoring threat who has reached double figures in six straight contests. He led the Bengals with 18 points in their last outing and is averaging 13.7 points per game during the team’s recent stretch. For UC Davis, support for Fagbemi will be crucial. Isaiah Chappell, who scored a team-high 20 points against Seattle, and Connor Sevilla provide additional scoring options. The Aggies will need to improve defensively after allowing an average of 86 points per game during their losing skid. Idaho State’s offense has been efficient, scoring 80 or more points in three of its last five games. Alongside Hollenbeck, Jamison Guerra (14 points, 4 assists vs. Montana Tech) and Caleb Van De Griend (17 points vs. Montana Tech) offer balanced production. This game concludes the non-conference schedule for both programs. UC Davis will open Big West play at home against Cal State Northridge on Jan. 1. Idaho State begins Big Sky Conference action the same day, hosting Sacramento State. Sunday’s tipoff is set for 2 p.m. MST at Holt Arena.
