Moscow -- The University of Idaho women's basketball team hasn't played a game yet this season and have already suffered a season ending injury.  On Thursday, head coach Jon Newlee announced senior guard/post Derisa Teleni will miss the 2009-10 season with a knee injury. 

Taleni was a unanimous choice to the pre-season WAC second team, but during practice earlier this week sustained an ACL injury.  Last season she was awarded WAC Newcomer of the Year and also received all-WAC honors.  She also ranked 4th in the conference with a 14.5 points per game scoring average.

Idaho head coach Jon Newlee said that Taleni will redshirt the 2009-10 season and return to the floor for the Vandals in 2010-11.
