In starting five Calmese (arm) is in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against Eastern Washington, Greg Woods of The Spokane Spokesman-Review reports.

Impact Calmese played a season-low 21 minutes in the Cougars' last game after departing to the locker room in the second half with an apparent arm or shoulder injury. The injury apparently was not overly serious, as he's right back in his usual spot in the starting lineup and will look to bounce back after underwhelming scoring performance versus Northern Colorado.

Impact Calmese was struggling even before he departed to the locker room, finishing with four points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and two steals in 21 minutes. He's been a big-time scorer early on, averaging 20 points per game while shooting 52.6 percent from the floor. A possible injury would be a devastating blow for the Cougars and would likely push Isaiah Watts into the starting lineup if Calmese is forced to miss time.
