Minor league pitchers Luis Moreno, Alejandro Crisostomo suspended after positive drug testsIdaho State men’s head basketball coach Ryan Looney said before this season began, his goal for the Bengals’ “money games” against Power Conference schools is to come back a better team. If the second half of Wednesday night’s game against the Big Ten’s UCLA is any indication, it was mission accomplished. No, the Bengals didn’t win, nor did it ever really feel like they were going to contend for that matter. But they put together probably their best offensive half of the season, considering the opposition, while losing 84-70. It was the most points UCLA has given up at home this year by a wide margin — the previous high was 50 to Rider. And the Bengals, who had been in an early-season shooting slump, rose up to shoot 55% from the field in the second half, after hitting just 32% and trailing 41-27 at halftime. Unfortunately for ISU, the Bruins, now 4-1, were pretty hot from the field themselves. They shot 57% for the game, including a red hot 64% from 3-point range (9-of-14). Tyler Bilodeau, a 6-foot-9-inch transfer forward who scored only three points for Oregon State against the Bengals last season, lit it up from outside Wednesday. He was 4-for-4 from distance, and wound up with 20 points. Meanwhile, Sebastian Mack, a powerful 6-3 guard, made a living at the free throw line for the Bruins, hitting 15-of-16 foul shots on his way to 21 points. His backcourt mate, Eric Dailey, Jr., added 16 points on 7-of-9 shooting. So UCLA had plenty of firepower to put the game away. What was encouraging for the Bengals, however, is how well they performed offensively against a team that was holding opponents to 51.8 points a game, and forcing 19 turnovers a contest. ISU forward Isaiah Griffin was the Bengal offense in the first half, scoring the team’s first 12 points. He wound up with 16 total on 5-of-8 shooting, including 3-of-6 from 3-point range. Then in the second half, guard Dylan Darling, struggling from beyond-the-arc, starting take the ball inside and wound up with 13 points on 5-of-10 shooting. Guard AJ Burgin came off the bench to hit three 3s on the way to 11 points, and redshirt freshman Jaedyn Brown had his best game as a Bengal, hitting a pair of treys and finishing with 10 points. As a team, the Bengals only turned the ball over 12 times versus the Bruins’ full-court, man-to-man pressure. ISU was outrebounded for the first time this season, 25-23. But it still had more offensive rebounds, 10-8, than UCLA, which was playing before a sparse crowd of 4,029 fans in historic Pauley Pavilion. The Bruins, who used to be the “gold standard” in college basketball decades ago, haven’t played before a home crowed larger than 5,108 fans so far in their four home games this season. The Bengals fall to 2-4 on the season, but their tour of “money games” is now over. They return home to take on Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Monday at 7 p.m. at Reed Gym.
The Expert Edit features interviews with specialists about the products they swear by in their chosen field. For the latest installment, we spoke with Tunde Oyeneyin , Peloton instructor, Nike athlete, and New York Times bestselling author of "Speak." Oyeneyin offered her tips for running a marathon, along with her must-have products. Tunde Oyeneyin is a longtime pro when it comes to cycling, but marathons are something she's recently mastered. Oyeneyin completed the New York City marathon — her first 26.2 miles — in 2023, as well as the Chicago marathon earlier this year with Abbott, the healthcare technologies company. "I challenge people in my classes every day to do something that scares them; I realized I needed to challenge myself, too," Oyeneyin tells PS, recalling her decision to run a marathon in the first place. "It was my turn to be scared and to be thrown outside of my comfort zone." While a fitness expert, the Peloton instructor says the New York Marathon "broke me down," challenging her body in ways she'd never done before. "But it was ultimately to rebuild myself back up stronger. I found a new version of myself in the depths of the darkness surrounding the toughness of the marathon ." In training for the Chicago marathon, Oyeneyin prioritized her mental fortitude just as much as her physical training — something that she says made all the difference. "There were definitely moments that felt more difficult during the race than others. There were moments that self-doubt and imposter syndrome crept in, but unlike the NYC Marathon I ran last year, this time I was able to identify those moments and remind myself that 'I've been here before,'" Oyeneyin says. "Sure, it was a different route, but I knew what those moments were telling me; rather, I knew what they were trying to teach me. Being broken down in those moments of struggle were also the moments that were going to build me up as a runner during that race and as an athlete beyond it." Having turned her own marathon experience around, Oyeneyin hopes to encourage others to lean into the challenge of 26.2 miles. "Now as a two-time marathoner, my goal is to provide light for others to see themselves," she says. And while the physical and mental training is crucial, the Nike athlete also believes in the power of good gear and tech. Ahead, Oyeneyin shares six items she depends on to support her fitness goals — whether that's running a marathon or motivating her class. A Glucose Monitor Lingo ($49 and up) "I wear Lingo, which is a biosensor by Abbott that pairs to an app on my phone and it helps me understand how food, exercise and stress affects my glucose — which is key for running longer distances," Oyeneyin says. "It was extra helpful in training for the Chicago Marathon. It helped me learn just how vital my protein intake is at breakfast." For more context, Lingo is 14-day Lingo biosensor(s) with minute-by-minute continuous glucose tracking to learn more about the impact of your eating habits and which foods work best for you. When a PS contributor put the tech to the test, she found the data enlightening. You can read the full Lingo review here . A Good Pair of Running Shoes Nike Alphafly 3s ($285) "The Nike Alphafly 3s are my favorite running shoes," Oyeneyin says. "They make me feel invincible, they're very comfortable and give me just the right amount of bounce." You cans shop the Nike Alphafly 3s in four different colors and trust that while appearing bulky, these sneakers offer a lightweight and supportive vessel to propel you forward on the track. The sneakers were designed with marathon speed in mind, offering a midsole foam designed to provide optimized responsiveness throughout every race. A Solid Playlist Tunde Oyeneyin's Playlist "A great playlist is essential," Oyeneyin says. "It keeps me going and headstrong throughout any race or workout, and can especially be helpful when you're not in the mood to get up and move." We included Oyeneyin Spotify playlist above which features hits like Eve's "Tambourine," Usher's "Caught Up," and Ariana Grande's "God Is a Woman". If you manage to get through Oyeneyin's favorites and need some more tunes, PS also put together this playlist of more than 50 songs to get you through your sweat session. An Energy Drink Accelerator - Passion Fruit ($25) This passion fruit energy drink is Oyeneyin's signature flavor, combining a proprietary blend of natural caffeine, plant-based metabolism boosters, and antioxidants to create a mid-day or pre-workout boost (Oyeneyin prefers the latter). "It's a natural energy drink that gives me a boost of energy when I need it the most — whether it's before a run or strength workout," she says. Accelerator also comes in 10 additional flavors, including star berry, island guava, and orange mango. Shoes For Strength and Lifting Nike Free Metcon 6 ($120) When it comes to marathon training, running isn't the only workout you should prioritize — cross training is crucial. That's where Oyeneyin turns to the Nike Metcons. "The Metcons are my favorite shoes for lifting and strength workouts. They're flexible, breathable, and offer great traction," she says. These sneakers come in 16 colors and are made with recycled materials from post-consumer and/or post-manufactured waste, making them a plus for sustainability. You can also custom design these sneakers, adding your name, marathon date, or bib number. A Trusted Fitness App Peloton App ($13/month) "I use the Peloton app daily at home or as a sidekick at the gym when I don't feel like planning my own workout. It's great for motivation and great when I need someone else to tell me what to do," she says. The Peloton App One membership includes access to strength, outdoor running, yoga, and gym workouts. The Peloton App+ ($24/month) includes bike, tread, and rower workouts. But both offer a 30-day trial so you can see what membership best suits your fitness goals.
