BOISE, Idaho (KIFI) - Idaho State is one win away from clinching a spot in the NCAA Tournament after they beat Northern Colorado in the Big Sky Tournament Semifinals, 65-55.

The Bengals will play Idaho or Montana State in the championship game on Friday at Noon inside Idaho Central Arena.

Callie Bourne registered a double-double for the Bengals. She scored 12 points and grabbed 10 rebounds. Ellie Smith chipped in 12 points as she was a perfect 4 for 4 from the field.

"It's so exciting," Bourne said. "We've been working to get here and we've never been in this position. I don't think any of us besides Stefi (Estefania Ors) have been in this position. So we're looking forward to it and just want to have fun with this experience."
