WSU handles Utah Tech behind Jakimovski and Rice’s big day

Back from their short road trip last weekend, the Washington State Cougars took care of business against the Utah Tech Trailblazers 93-53.

Andrej Jakimovski paved the way with a near career day, scoring a game-high 20 points, three shy of his career high while cashing in five treys. WSU (4-1) got their kill shot early with a 16-0 run in the final five minutes of the half to take a commanding 18-point lead over UT (2-3). Myles Rice contributed the highlights with two poster dunks and scored 18 points.

The Trailblazers only lead came on the first bucket of the game 23 seconds in.
