OPENING TIP

• Weber State is 2-5 on the season following Wednesday's 72-67 win at Utah Valley. The Wildcats shot 57 percent from the field in the second half to rally for the win.

• Senior Jerrick Harding led the way with a season-high 36 points in the win. Harding was 12 of 19 from the field and knocked down four 3-pointers. He scored 27 points in the second half. The 36 points is the second most in a game in the Big Sky this season and tied for the second most in a game in Harding's career. It was also the most points ever scored by a Wildcat in a road game against an in-state team.

• Harding now leads the Big Sky in scoring at 20.2 points per game.

• Westcliff University is located in Irvine, California. The Warriors are 1-12 on the season. Saturday's game will be an exhibition game for Westcliff. They have played three other Division I teams this season, Sacramento State, Cal State Bakersfield and Loyola Marymount.

• Saturday's game has been moved from its original 2 p.m. start and will now start at 7 p.m., due to WSU football's home game at 1 p.m.

• This is the first meeting ever between the two schools.

• The Wildcats are back to in-state games next week taking on the University of Utah in the Beehive Classic next Saturday at the Vivint Smart-Home Arena in Salt Lake City.
