CHENEY — A late 8-0 run and a key block by Thomas Reuter with nine seconds left lifted Eastern Washington's men's basketball team to a 57-54 victory over visiting Idaho State on Saturday in a Big Sky Conference game.

Justin Crosgile offset a 2-of-12 shooting night with seven assists, four steals and seven rebounds to go along with eight points. His three-point play with 3:31 left gave Eastern a lead it would not relinquish, and the Eagles (3-9, 1-1 Big Sky) snapped a four-game losing streak.

"To be on this side of a close win will go a long way for our guys — it was a much-needed win," Eastern coach Jim Hayford said in a news release.
