BYU men's basketball: Dave Rose's top 25 wins at BYU
Editor's note: Dave Rose got an assist from his family in picking up his first win as head coach at BYU, as son-in-law Brock Reichner led the BYU attack.
BYU's basketball team has wandered around looking for a win for six outings dating back to last year, and they finally found the watering hole in Pac-10 territory Tuesday, defeating Washington State 76-68 before a crowd of 3,138 in Spokane Arena.
Brock Reichner led the Cougars with 18 points with Fernando Malaman adding 14 and Jimmy Balderson 12. The win lifted BYU to 1-1 on the season while WSU dropped to 1-1.
"Our concentration level is what I was most pleased with," BYU coach Dave Rose said. "It was much better than it was in our opener. I thought we did a much better job playing as a team. We weren't depending on one guy to make a play. Everyone shared the ball well."
