In a 96-55 win over Treasure Valley CC on Friday, Wright scored a career-high 29 points and added 12 rebounds, while shooting an incredible 14-of-15 from the floor. On Saturday, Wright produced 24 points and 12 rebounds to fuel the Bruins' 101-53 rout of Warren Air Force Base.

Through nine games for SLCC, Wright is averaging a team-high 17.9 points and 11.3 rebounds.

DIXIE LOSES NAIL-BITER: Dixie State is still looking for its first win after coming up short on a late rally in a 55-53 loss to Cal State Los Angeles on Saturday night.

DSC (0-4) trailed by seven points, 55-48, with 2:06 left. They were able to slice the lead down to just two with 1:15 remaining on a three-pointer from Adam Ross and a jumper by Ryan Sanchez.

Dixie State had a pair of chances to tie or take the lead in the final minute. A turnover by Kevin Lindquist and a missed jumper by Sanchez with three seconds left both helped the Golden Eagles (1-1) survive and scratch out their first victory of the season.
