In the first meeting, the Cougs survived a late Cats surge led by Caleb Love (who scored 28) to win at home by simply out-executing UA down the stretch with Idaho transfer 6-9 PF Isaac Jones (scored 24) doing the bulk of the damage. That result seemed to infuse Wazzu with confidence, as star frosh G Myles Rice (15.9 ppg), Jones (15.7 ppg), and D-II transfer F Jaylen Wells (15 ppg since start of January; via Sonoma State) have picked up the baton and carried it to near the top of the conference (where the Cougs will find themselves all by themselves if they win again tonight). Oh yes, Wazzu has won 10 of its last 11! Play WSU
