After the two free throws by Stucki and one by Monroe, Montana's Cameron Rundles connected for a 3-pointer at the buzzer.
Idaho State was led by Logan Kinghorn, who had 17 points and 10 rebounds. Three other Bengals scored in double figures; Stucki and Austin Kilpatrick, with 11 points each, and Donnie Carson, with 10.
The Grizzlies (14-15) were paced by Martin, with 16 points, including five 3-pointers; Ryan Staudacher, with 14 points, and Strait, with 13.
The Grizzlies led 32-26 at halftime. In the second half, the Bengals hit 77.8 percent of their field-goal attempts.
