BOX SCORE
SALT LAKE CITY (AP) _ Alex Jensen and Nate Althoff each scored 13 points to lead No. 20 Utah to an easy 74-45 win over Stony Brook Monday night. Jensen scored all of his points in the first half and played just 17 minutes. The Utes (2-1) led by as many as 35 points and allowed their reserves and walk-ons to play the last 10 minutes of the game. The 6-foot-11 Althoff was dominating against the smaller Seawolves, scoring all his points within five feet of the basket and blocking three shots. Utah's Jeremy Killion added 11 points, including three 3-pointers, and Tony Harvey handed out eight assists. Josh Little scored a game-high 14 points and Francois Oloa had 11 for Stony Brook (0-5), which is playing its first year at the Division I level. After a 5-5 tie early in the game, Utah took advantage of Stony Brook's zone defense with three consecutive 3-pointers by Jensen. Josh Little made a long 3-pointer to cut Utah's lead to 22-14, but the Utes then closed the half with an 18-4 run. Utah made 7-of-11 shots from beyond the arc in the first half with little defensive pressure to build the big 40-18 halftime cushion. The Utes, who totaled 21 assists on their 27 field goals, extended their home winning streak to 37 games.
