He’s only a sophomore at Utah State, but Koby McEwen’s adventure in the state of Utah is now in its sixth year. First, it was four years of a boarding school experience followed by his current role of college student.
“Number one, he really likes to play. Number two, he really wants to play for a long time — wherever basketball takes him,” Utah State coach Tim Duryea said.
Right now, McEwen’s upward trajectory has hit a holding pattern. But he’s in the process of making adjustments.
Case in point: In McEwen’s last three games he scored seven points against Wyoming, erupted for 23 in the win over Boise State, then took just five shots in Wednesday’s loss at New Mexico.
