POCATELLO, Idaho (AP) --Senior guard Matt Stucki scored 20 points and had nine rebounds and nine assists as Idaho State beat Utah for the first time in 50 years, 72-68, on Saturday night.
Clutch free-throw shooting down the stretch helped Idaho State (2-5) preserve its first win over the Utes (5-2) since the 1958-59 season.
With Idaho State leading 66-65 and 33 seconds remaining, Amorrow Morgan hit five of seven free-throw attempts and Stucki hit one of two to seal the win.
Utah overcame a 15-point first-half deficit and briefly took a second-half lead as two free throws from forward Shaun Green put the Utes up 61-60. It was the first and only time the Utes held a lead in the game as Idaho State snatched it back 19 seconds later and never again relinquished the advantage.
Utah was led by 7-2 center Luke Nevill with 22 points as he cracked the 20-point threshold for the 19th time in his career. He also recorded a career-high four blocks in the contest. Shaun Green added 14 and Carlon Brown had 11 for the Utes.
Idaho State led 45-34 at halftime, led by 16 points from Stucki, who hit six of nine shots in the first 20 minutes. Idaho State shot 64 percent from the field in that half and had leads as high as 15 points.
Morgan finished with 14 points and Idaho State forward Demetrius Monroe had 11 points and seven rebounds.
