CSU-Pueblo 88, Adams State 76
The ThunderWolves used its athleticism to pull away from Adams
State in the second half, cruising to an 88-76 win Friday.
The Pack, playing in front of over 3,000 fans on "Take a Kid to
the Game" night, needed a shot at the buzzer by Roman Van
Allen (Sr., Los Angeles, Calif.) to even go into
halftime with a tie. Deadlocked at 31, the ThunderWolves
looked to put the Grizzlies away in the second half.
The game went back and forth at the beginning of the half until
the ThunderWolves used a 9-0 run to pull ahead 54-46 at the 13:04
mark, thanks in large part to back-to-back treys by Chris Busch (Sr.,
Oakland, Calif.) and Marc Williams (Sr.,
Seattle, Wash.).
From there, the Pack kept Adams State at bay, and the Grizzlies
never got any closer than five points from the lead. The Pack
got great nights from Williams, who netted a game-high 14 points,
and a 13-point night from Van Allen, who made three three-pointers
and recorded two steals.
CSU-Pueblo will have a big match Saturday night when Fort Lewis
comes to Massari Arena. Opening tip is scheduled for 8 p.m.
