PROVO — In BYU’s first exhibition game Wednesday night at the Marriott Center, the Cougars were cruising along, enjoying a 22-point halftime lead against Division II foe Saint Martin’s.
Then came the second half.
The Saints came out strong and cut the deficit to 15. They ended up hitting 9 of 13 3-pointers over the final 20 minutes.
BYU beat Saint Martin’s handily, 92-71, but it was a performance that gives the Cougars plenty to work on with less than a couple of weeks until the regular season tips off Nov.
