FORT COLLINS, Colo. (Interstat) — Kyle Jorgensen scored 25 points and grabbed nine rebounds to lead Colorado State to a dominant 97-74 victory over Omaha in a non-conference men’s basketball game Sunday at Moby Arena.

The Rams improved to 2-0 on the young season, while the Mavericks fell to 0-3.

Colorado State took control early, using a 15-4 run to build a double-digit lead in the first half and never looked back. The Rams led 48-38 at halftime and continued to pull away after the break, outscoring Omaha 49-36 in the second half.

Jorgensen, a 6-foot-9 forward from Minneapolis, was efficient from the field and nearly secured a double-double in 30 minutes of action. He was complemented by a strong all-around performance from his teammates. Carey Booth, a 6-foot-10 forward from Englewood, Colorado, recorded a double-double with 13 points and 11 rebounds. Josh Pascarelli added 15 points, four rebounds, and four assists for the Rams.

Omaha was led by Tony Osburn, who scored 24 points. Lance Waddles contributed 18 points for the Mavericks, and Grant Stubblefield dished out six assists.

Colorado State’s offense was fueled by its work inside, outscoring Omaha 34-20 in the paint. The Rams also capitalized on Mavericks mistakes, scoring 15 points off turnovers.

A crowd of 6,405 watched the game at Moby Arena.

Omaha will look for its first win of the season when it hosts Southern Utah on Nov. 15. Colorado State’s next contest is at home against Cal Poly on Nov. 12.
