HELENA, Mont. - The No. 16 Carroll College Men's Basketball team is on the road for their lone NCAA Division I exhibition contest on the year, visiting Boise State at 7 p.m. in Boise, Idaho.

The Saints (2-0) are starting the season fast and furious. Tonight's exhibition at Boise State will be the third game in the last five days to open the year for Carroll. The Saints are off to a good start, breezing to victories over a pair of Canadian schools this past weekend in Helena. 

Carroll's Jonny Hillman (Post Falls, Idaho / SR) is off to a strong start in his senior campaign. Hillman enters tonight's exhibition averaging 16.5 points per game on 56.5 percent from the field, alongside four rebounds per game. 

The Saints have four players averaging double-digit points through two games - Hillman (16.5), Gui Pedra (14.5), Andrew Cook (12.5) and newcomer Isaiah Moore (12.0).

Tonight's exhibition is a great opportunity for Head Coach Kurt Paulson to get his young Saints roster some on-court experience in a large environment, and continue to build chemistry early in the season.

Carroll will take on a Boise State team that has yet to play a game on the year. The Broncos return 10 players from a 2021-22 team that finished 27-8, won the Mountain West Conference, and made it to the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

A radio broadcast for tonight's exhibition is available HERE, and live stats for the match can be found HERE. Tonight's game will not be streamed.
