The nation’s top scoring duo was not going to be denied after a sluggish start in San Jose, Calif.
Graham Ike had 25 points and 18 rebounds and Hunter Maldonado added 23 points and five assists to lead the Wyoming to a 74-52 victory over San Jose State on Saturday night at the PCU Event Center.
The Cowboys (21-3, 10-1) moved back into a tie for first place in the Mountain West Standings with Boise State after the one-two punch of Ike and Maldonado knocked the last-place Spartans (7-17, 0-12) out.
“It makes me sleep a little easier at night,” UW head coach Jeff Linder said of having the dynamic duo.
