No. 13 Colorado State seeks to rebound against Boise State
No. 13 Colorado State looks to get back on track Tuesday at Boise State after suffering a loss in which it struggled late at Utah State on Saturday night.
The Broncos (10-4, 1-0 Mountain West) are coming off Friday’s 78-69 win at San Jose State.
The Rams (13-2, 1-1) lost 77-72 to Utah State after they could not convert a field goal attempt for almost four minutes in a span in which the Aggies went on a 10-0 run.
Utah State, which made 63 percent of its shots from the field in the second half, took a 65-57 lead with 3:57 left after the run.
Nique Clifford and Patrick Cartier had 18 and 15 points, respectively, but were playing with four fouls during Utah State’s 10-0 run.
Clifford and Cartier eventually fouled out.
“Our defense really kind of fell apart,” Colorado State coach Niko Medved said. “Too many mistakes. We lost our discipline and we had some guys that, maybe because they were in foul trouble, were maybe playing a little bit tentative defensively.
“You can’t do that because that was not good enough.”
Isaiah Stevens led the Rams with 21 points and eight assists. He made 8 of 16 shots from the field, 4 of 8 from 3-point range.
The Broncos ended their game by outscoring San Jose State 30-12 over the final 10 minutes after the Spartans led 57-48 with 10:36 remaining.
O’Mar Stanley, who scored a career-best 30 points and collected 11 rebounds, was 7 of 8 from the free-throw line in the waning minutes.
Boise State held San Jose State’s MJ Amey to five points in the second half after he scored 25 in the first half.
The Broncos’ Tyson Degenhart had 17 of his 21 points in the second half.
“It feels a lot better than going home 0-1,” Degenhart said. “It was a much-needed win for us to get off on the right foot in conference play. It feels good to start it out the right way.”
Boise State coach Leon Rice was critical of his team’s 15 turnovers that led to 22 points for San Jose State.
The Spartans had 21 fast-break points compared to only seven for the Broncos.
Boise State trailed for 30:53 of the game.
“People will look at the score tomorrow and back in the old days they’d pick up the paper in the morning and say, ‘Well, that looked easy. That must have been easy,’” Rice said. “But no, when you saw it in person, there was a lot going against us.”
Boise State won the rebounding battle 43-23 against San Jose State.
Colorado State was outrebounded 45-33 by Utah State.
The Rams also went 4 of 11 at the free-throw line compared to 20 of 23 for the Aggies.
“We got outscored by 16 from the free-throw line,” Medved said. “A lot of that is we have to make them and we have to play with more physicality.
“Disappointing because I thought we had an opportunity tonight. They executed better than we did down the stretch.”

Driver dies days after head-on collision in Colorado Springs; surviving driver may have been involved in a race, police say
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV) – One person is dead after unwittingly getting in the middle of a car race over the weekend.
Police say the victim was traveling westbound on Briargate Boulevard near Lexington Drive when an eastbound car slammed into them head-on.
“Preliminary information indicated that the eastbound vehicle had been engaged in a speed contest with another vehicle prior to the collision,” the Colorado Springs Police Department wrote in a blotter post on the crash.
Both drivers were taken to the hospital with serious injuries, but at the time they were transported, the injuries were not believed to be life-threatening.
“It was later reported that the driver of the westbound vehicle died as a result of complications related to surgery stemming from the crash,” police said.
CSPD’s Major Crash Team is investigating the head-on collision. Speed is suspected as a factor in the crash.
There’s currently no word on whether the surviving driver will face charges.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV) – Colorado voters will be asked in November whether or not state laws should change on how youth sports are organized and who is allowed to have certain surgeries in the state.
Protect Kids Colorado (PKC) is an organization that worked to get initiatives 109 and 110 on the ballot. Kevin Lundberg, a republican and former Colorado State Senator and State Representative, serves on the organization’s Board of Directors.
According to it’s website, PKC “is a grassroots, We the People movement to educate, unify, and mobilize … any concerned citizen to protect kids from becoming victims of a dangerous and false ideology.”
Several LGBTQ+ advocates in Colorado oppose the initiatives, including One Colorado. On Instagram, the organization called the measures “dangerous” and “anti-trans.”
Initiative 109 asks voters to make a new state law, requiring students compete on sports teams aligned with their biological sex, starting in kindergarten and lasting through higher education. There would be an exception for females to join male teams if there is no female team available. Schools and athletic associations would have to designate teams as male, female or coeducational.
Initiative 110 seeks to prohibit biological sex-altering surgery on minors. Doctors would not be allowed to provide such procedures, and public insurance companies, including Medicaid reimbursement, would not be allowed to pay for them.
Leaders with Inside Out Youth Services (IOYS), an LGBTQ+ advocacy group based in Colorado Springs, say these measures would harm young people.
“The message that this would send to our young people is that they matter less than their peers,” said Ollie Glessner with IOYS. “It would send the message that they don’t exist, their identities don’t exist and aren’t worth protecting.”
Erin Lee, Executive Director for PKC, says the measures secure protections that previous state legislative proposals have sought to secure but failed.
“These are not right versus left issues, these are just right versus wrong issues. And so we wanted to give the people a way to still put these common sense safeguards in place for children,” Lee said.
Similar proposals are being considered by congress within the SAVE Act.
The election is November 3.
