Wyoming Cowboys Get Ready For CBI

While the Wyoming Cowboys Basketball team did not get invited to play in the National Invitation Tournament, players say they are still happy to be playing in the College Basketball Invitational.  Head Coach Larry Shyatt says the key is that the team gets to keep playing and getting better.  Wyoming center Adam Waddell says it’s nice to play in the postseason.

“I know for us seniors that’s big for us," says Wadell. "So we are excited about that and I think the mindset gonna be how it’s been all year.  We haven’t asked for anything all year and to get this opportunity to play one more time it not a couple of more times, maybe here in Laramie is something we are going to cherish and we’re excited.”

Wyoming opens CBI play Wednesday night at seven against North Dakota State in the Arena-Auditorium.
