LMU had a 26-23 halftime lead. It was tied at 30 early in the second half before BYU's 25-5 run made it 55-35 with about eight minutes to go. BYU (14-10, 6-3 West Coast Conference) has won two of four but that includes double-digit losses to San Francisco and No. 4 Gonzaga.
The Cougars are 14-3 against LMU (16-7, 4-5) since joining the WCC and have won the last seven at home against the Lions.
