LOGAN, Utah (AP) — Dwayne Brown Jr. and Koby McEwen combined to score 44 points as Utah State romped past Life Pacific, posting 96-62 victory over the NAIA school from San Dimas, California on Saturday night.
It was the first meeting between the schools. Utah State has never lost to a non-Division I opponent and now is 25-0 against NAIA schools.

Brown hit 11 of 15 shots from the field and scored 24 points to lead the Aggies (6-6). McEwen made 7 of 11 from the field and knocked down 5 of 9 from behind the arc to post 20 points.
Jonathan Cortez scored 16 points and Mark Eden added another 15 for Life Pacific.
