LOGAN, Utah -- Prentiss Nixon scored 26 points and Colorado State halted a two-game skid, beating Utah State 84-75 on Wednesday night.

Colorado State led throughout the second half and a Nico Carvacho 3-point play followed by a Che Bob jumper helped stretch it to 60-38 with 14:31 to go.
Nixon was 8 of 14 from the field, 4 of 6 from distance and made all six of his free throws. Bob added 19 points and seven rebounds and Carvacho had 10 points and 15 rebounds for his third double-double this season.
