3 Last Time Out - Utah 82, Colorado State 61 SALT LAKE CITY -- Shaun Green scored a seasonhigh 20 points and grabbed nine rebounds as Utah snapped a four-game losing streak by handing Colorado State its 16th straight loss, on Tuesday night. The Utes (16-12, 7-8 Mountain West) dominated from the start, shooting 58 percent and badly outrebounding the Rams (6-23, 0-15). Colorado State had only one starter--6-foot-6 forward Andre McFarland--taller than 6-4 because of injuries to 7-foot centers Stuart Creason and Ronnie Aguilar. Utah capitalized on the height advantage with had 39 rebounds to Colorado State s 22 and ended a fourgame losing streak. In the absence of an inside game, the Rams shot a season-high 32 three-pointers. They made 12 of them, but shot 38.6 percent overall and allowed Utah to open the game on an 18-6 run. The Utes led by as many as 23 points, before settling for the 21-point victory. Luke Nevill scored 19 points for the Utes, while Johnnie Bryant added 14 and Kim Tillie scored 13. McFarland led the Rams with 15 points. Green and Bryant both hit four 3-pointers in the contest. Utah hit 68 percent of its field-goal attempts in the second half and shot.582 for the game. It was the highest field-goal percentage Utah has recorded in Mountain West Conference play so far this season. Ute-nited Nations The University of Utah men s basketball team is made up of student-athletes from five different nations and three of the seven continents. Of the 14 players on the Runnin Ute roster, 10 hail from the United States and four are international. Two Utah players are from Europe. The Utes two Europeans are Kim Tillie (France) and Luka Drca (Serbia). Luke Nevill hails from Australia. For good measure, Utah adds a Canadian to the mix with Tyler Kepkay. During the summer, the Utes would often scrimmage with a full international team against an American squad. For the internationals, Kepkay would play the point, while Drca manned the shooting guard spot. Australian Stephen Weigh (who has since left the team) was the small forward, while Tillie and Nevill roamed the paint as the power forward and center, respectively. One Win Needed One more victory for the Runnin Utes this season will assure them of their first winning season since Utah was overall in and in The Utes have a record and are assured of at least three more games. Therefore, 16 wins would give Utah a winning record, which would be a first for every player on the roster with the exception of Chris Grant, who played in Take Two, They re Free Despite a 5-of-10 performance Saturday at Wyoming, Utah is still the top free-throw shooting team (by percentage) in the Mountain West Conference. The Utes are converting at a rate of.748 from the charity stripe. They are ranked No. 1 in the MWC and No. 16 in the nation in the most recent statistical reports. While Utah has shot the ball very well at the line for much of the season, the Utes continue to struggle getting there. Utah ranks last in the MWC in free throws attempted per game (15.1). Three-For-All Utah is one of just two teams in the Mountain West Conference to shoot better than 40 percent from 3-point range. In fact, there are only 14 teams in the nation who can boast a.400 percentage or better from beyond the arc. Utah currently ranks No. 2 in the MWC and No. 9 in the nation with its point field-goal percentage. The Utes went without a 3-pointer in the first half of Saturday s loss to Wyoming, the first time that has happened this season. They came back to hit three triples in the second half, however.

The 7-foot 1-inch Aussie hasn t been quite that hot this season. However, he heated up a bit in his last two outings, going 16-of-28 (.571) and has raised his overall fieldgoal percentage to.544 (No. 2 in the MWC). Nevill has averaged 20.5 points in 21 minutes over the last two contests. Nevill s 1.61 blocked shots per game lead the MWC. His 45 rejections this season are the most for a Ute since Andrew Bogut swatted 65 shots in Johnnie s Jumpers Senior guard Johnnie Bryant fell to No. 2 on the team in scoring last week. He is averaging 14.3 points per game. Bryant currently ranks 3rd in the MWC and 13th in the nation in 3-point field-goal percentage, hitting at a.460 clip from behind the arc. He is the only non-starter ranked in the Mountain West Conference s top 10 scorers. In fact, he ranks No. 1 in the nation in scoring among all players who have not started a game this season. Bryant is No. 2 among players who have started fewer than one-quarter of their team s contests. Drca s Dishes Sophomore guard Luka Drca has eclipsed the 100-assist mark, making him the first Ute to do so in three seasons. The Utes top playmaker last season was Johnnie Bryant, who handed out just 81 assists. Drca dished out 10 Tuesday, pushing his total to 104 (an average of 3.9 helpers per game). His current total is the most since Marc Jackson recorded 128 assists in Drca currently ranks No. 4 in the Mountain West Conference in assists per game and is the only non-starter in the league s top 10 in that category. Shaun s Shots Junior forward Shaun Green enjoyed his best all-around game of the season Tuesday night vs. Colorado State. He scored a season-high 20 points on 8-of-11 shooting from the field and his eight field goals were also a season-high. Green hit four 3-pointers in the contest vs. the Rams, the most triples he has made since nailing four on Jan. 26 vs. TCU. He is now averaging 7.9 points per game. In addition to the scoring output, Green pulled down nine rebounds vs. CSU, pushing his rebounding average to a season-high 5.0 per game. Dynamic Duo Nevill and Bryant scored 33 of Utah s 82 points vs. Colorado State Saturday. Their 33 points accounted for 40.2 percent of the Utes scoring vs. the Rams. For the season, Nevill (412) and Bryant (399) have combined to score 811 of Utah s 1,921 points (42.2 percent). Nevill or Bryant have either led Utah in scoring or tied for that honor in 19 of Utah s 28 games this season.
