Colorado St. Vs. Air Force Score Update: Rams Hold Slight Advantage

After earning a huge home victory over UNLV, the Colorado St. Rams entered their matchup with Air Force knowing that a victory would provide a huge boost in their quest for an NCAA Tournament spot. However, with their struggles on the road in Mountain West play, it should come as no surprise that the Rams only hold a slight 37-34 advantage over the Falcons after 20 minutes of action.

Colorado St. executed its offense at a high level in the opening half, shooting 53.6% from the field as a team. Dorian Green was the primary offensive option, as he led the way with 10 points on 4/7 shooting. The Rams shot the ball well from behind the three-point line, hitting 5/10 attempts.

The Falcons were able to stay in the game thanks to some impressive shooting from behind the arc. The Falcons hit 8/11 three-point attempts, with Michael Lyons draining 3/4. Lyons and Mike Fitzgerald each netted nine points in the opening half, while Taylor Broekhuis added five points.
