BYU's senior leaders and its defense took over on Thursday and led the Cougars to a dominating 75-52 win over Albacete Basket in Albacete, Spain, as the European road trip continued for coach Dave Rose's club.

BYU improved to 2-0 and has two more games to play. Its next game is on Monday against the European Basketball Academy in Barcelona, Spain.

On Thursday, senior Kyle Collinsworth filled the stat sheet with 15 points, seven rebounds, eight assists, five steals and three blocks. Fellow senior Chase Fischer added 10 points.
