BYU men's basketball: Childs leads Cougars in 81-71 win over CSU Bakersfield

Brigham Young forward Eric Mika (12) bumps his chest against Brigham Young forward Yoeli Childs (23) during an NCAA college basketball game against Cal State Bakersfield in Provo on Thursday, Dec. 22, 2016. Brigham Young held off Cal State Bakersfield for the win with a final score of 81-71.

I thought our first half might have been as good as we’ve played — maybe all year in a stretch. Defensively we were really kind of dialed in, and we rebounded the ball really good off of misses.
