Colorado State women’s basketball rolls rival Wyoming | Colorado Sunshine
Where the good news shines
The Colorado State women’s basketball team routed Border War rival Wyoming 83-54 on Saturday in front of a sold-out Moby Arena in Fort Collins.
The Rams (18-6, 9-4 Mountain West) had four in double figures: Brooke Carlson, Lexus Bargesser, Madelyn Bragg and Kloe Froebe, with Carlson setting a career high of 23 points.
Colorado State was dominant from long range, going 13 of 24 from beyond the arc. The Rams shot 50% from the field overall.
After the big win, the Rams head out on the road to visit San Diego State at 7 p.m. Wednesday.
