Tomorrow night at Taco Bell Arena the Broncos will play their final regular season home game of the year along with it being senior night.

The team will honor three of their seniors before their showdown with the Fresno State Bulldogs.  

Nick Duncan will play his final regular-season home game along with Matt Grooms who has seen limited playing time and James Reid who ranks 4th in the three-pointers made per game in the conference.

For the players though it will be the remembrance of Head Coach Leon Rice that has made their special wearing the blue and orange.

"We were talking about a little mind over matter and he (Coach Rice) informed us he ran a 5:45 mile on the treadmill and how he didn't think he could do it but he just got on their and wasn't stopping.  So the next day he walked into the gym I called him “Lefontaine” a little praise to one of his idols back in Eugene," said, Senior Guard James Reid.

"Those guys like I've said they mean so much to this team and they provide so much of a mature level that I'm really going to miss that," said, Head Coach Leon Rice.
