TEAM NOTES

BYU outrebounded Long Beach State 51-43. Kyle Collinsworth led with 13 boards, Corbin Kaufusi added 10 and Kyle Davis posted nine rebounds.

The Cougars had 14 turnovers in the first half and finished with 24 turnovers. It was the highest number of turnovers since 29 against Pepperdine during the 2007-08 season.

BYU tied the game at 59-all on Collinsworth’s reverse layup with 4:51 remaining. It was the first tied game since a 10-10 tie at the 13:42 mark in the first half.

Corbin Kaufusi (17 points, 10 rebounds) and Kyle Collinsworth (12 points, 13 rebounds) posted double-doubles.
