Colorado State Rams Notes
Jalen Lake posted 12 points (5-8 FG, 1-2 3 Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound and five assists across 20 minutes in Friday’s 106-61 victory over Adams St.
After missing the last five games due to a finger injury, Lake returned to action and received his first start of the season as Josiah Strong works his way back from a broken wrist. Strong is a game-time decision for Tuesday’s conference opener against New Mexico, but Lake should see at least 20 minutes whether he starts or is used as the team’s sixth-man.
Utah State Aggies Notes
Max Agbonkpolo (foot) is out for the remainder of Utah State’s 2023-24 season, according to The Herald Journal.
Agbonkpolo will undergo foot surgery, which may have ended his collegiate career prematurely. The redshirt senior averaged 23.6 minutes across his 10 games (one started) during Utah State’s 2023-24 season.
