Spartans fall 72-55

SJSU went into Ogden hoping to continue its win streak but the Weber Staters had something else in mind, like garnering their first of the season, and the latter prevailed 72-55.

Rashad Muhammad finished with a team-leading 17 points but required 16 shot attempts while frontcourt teammate Chris Cunningham finished with 14 boards and an efficient 10 points (5-7 shooting). Jaleel Williams corralled eight caroms plus 14 points but went 1-10 from long distance and ended the evening with 19 shot attempts.

Deficit numbers

* Overall, the Spartans shot 32% to the Wildcats' 48%.

* Coach Dave Wolcik's guys earned but 10 free throws versus 33 for the victors (although just 19 were made).

Next up is a very tough 6-2 Houston squad in H-town.
