SALT LAKE CITY -Alex Jensen had 16 points and 12 rebounds, and Tony Harvey scored 15 points in his second game at Utah as the Runnin' Utes beat St. Francis, Pa., 74-49 on Tuesday night.
Harvey, a junior college transfer was suspended by coach Rick Majerus during the season's first nine games for undisclosed disciplinary reasons, also had seven rebounds and three assists. His dunks and 3-for-5 shooting on 3-pointers were the only flash in a methodical Utah attack that wore down undermanned St. Francis.
The Red Flash led 19-17 with 8:44 left in the first half, but they scored just one more point before halftime. Utah held St. Francis scoreless for 6:16 and made a 19-1 run to a 36-20 halftime lead.
In all, Utah held the Red Flash without a field goal for 11:28. The Utes' lead was as large as 27 points in the second half as they coasted to their fourth win in their last five games.
Utah (7-4) has won all four of its home games this season by an average of nearly 23 points and has won 25 straight games at home. The Red Flash (3-6) lost for the fourth time in their last six.
St. Francis played without Sam Sutton, its leading scorer and shot-blocker, who recently had arthroscopic surgery on his left knee. The Red Flash's leading rebounder, Melvin Scott, also missed the game with a broken bone in his left foot.
Rob Krimmel led the Red Flash with 10 points. Andre Miller had 12 points, eight rebounds and five assists for Utah.
