Arizona State pulled off their first win of the conference season at the Jon M. Huntsman Center on Jan. 7, defeating the Utah Utes by a score of 80-77.
However, the victory didn’t come without a price. Forwards Romello White, De’Quon Lake and Vitaliy Shibel all fouled out for the Sun Devils in the closing minutes, allowing the Utes to get to the free throw line for a total of 36 attempts.
“It was the longest game in the history of college basketball,” joked coach Bobby Hurley.
Now returning home for their second matchup against the Utes, the Sun Devils will look to correct the foul count and get more production out of their star players.
