Montana beats Pitt for first win over ACC squad in 51 years
Travis DeCuire has never shied away from playing traditional basketball powerhouses.
And until Monday night, his Montana’s men’s basketball team has been close against Power 5 teams but never victorious.
On Monday, behind a dynamite performance from Michael Oguine, the Griz finally broke through, knocking off the Pitt Panthers, 83-78, in overtime.
The victory marks Montana’s first over a Power 5 conference opponent since UM beat Oregon State in 2010. It also marks the program’s first over a school from the Atlantic Coast Conference since 1966.
“We say every day is a good day to be the Griz, but this one is a little more special,” DeCuire told Riley Corcoran on KGVO Radio following the victory.
