Something really special is brewing for CSU.

Add that to Patrick Cartier, Jalen Lake, Josiah Strong and (hard maybe) Isaiah Stevens, that’s a great core.

Zay mode checked in at the perfect time. So did Patrick Cartier with a signature top-of-the-key 3-pointer to extend a late lead. The Rams only led for 2:35 in the second half, but a win is a win - especially in this Mountain West.
