Utah State Basketball Secures First Mountain West Victory


Utah State extended their undefeated streak to 8-0 with a hard-fought 70-67 victory over Wyoming in their first Mountain West game. Despite a slow start, the Aggies showed resilience and determination to secure the win. Ian Martinez led Utah State with 23 points, bouncing back from a tough first half. Mason Falslev added 19 points and matched Karson Templin’s team-high six rebounds.

The first half saw Utah State struggle with shooting, allowing Wyoming to take an early lead. However, a late rally by the Aggies helped them take a slim 32-29 lead at halftime. The team’s full-court defensive pressure disrupted Wyoming’s offense, allowing Utah State to maintain their lead.

In the second half, Utah State built an early advantage and managed to stay in front with clutch free throw shooting. Despite a late surge from Wyoming that tied the game at 56, Utah State held on for the win. The Aggies capitalized on their free throw opportunities, closing the game with a significant 26-9 advantage from the line.

Looking ahead, Utah State will return to non-conference play with a game against Utah Tech Trailblazers on Saturday before continuing their homestand. Fans can follow the team’s progress on KSL Sports Zone and the new KSL Sports app. Brian Preece, a KSLSports.com insider, covers local sports including Utah State University Athletics.
