Box Score Gamebook Postgame Notes

FORT COLLINS, Colo. – An 8-2 Boise State run pulled the team within six points, but Colorado State was able to pull away late to hand the Broncos a 75-62 loss, Tuesday at Moby Arena.

Roddie Anderson III made a 3-pointer, three free throws from the duo of Tyson Degenhart and O'Mar Stanley and a jumper from Andrew Meadow pulled Boise State (16-7, 7-3 MW) within six points with 13:09 remaining.

Degenhart grabbed an offensive rebound after the Rams (18-5, 6-4 MW) gave the ball away off a Jalen Lake miss. Anderson turned the ball over after he went down with an injured leg, and Colorado State went on a 7-0 run to pull ahead.

Degenhart finished with a team-high 25 points – his seventh 20-point game of the season.

Quotable

"This may have been one of the most physical Colorado State teams we've seen and it was just one of those nights where shots just weren't falling," said head coach Leon Rice. "Give Colorado State a ton of credit tonight though because this is a tough league and that's the hard part of playing in it."
