FORT COLLINS — For a select number of players, the game comes easy.

Whatever their team needs on a given night, that's what they do — be it defense, scoring or creating offense for others.

Ellen Nystrom is one of those rare talents, and on Tuesday her team needed points, so that's what she did.

A game after totaling seven assists, seven steals and just two points, the junior from Sweden matched a career best with 21 points to lead the Rams to a ho-hum 60-37 win over visiting Incarnate Word on Tuesday night at Moby Arena.
