Colorado State cruises past Air Force, 67-49

FORT COLLINS, Colo. — Pierce Hornung scored a career-high 23 points and matched a career best with 17 rebounds in leading Colorado State past Air Force 67-49 on Saturday.

Hornung posted his second double-double of the season and third of his career. He had nine offensive rebounds. He had a 17-rebound game on Nov. 29, 2009 against San Francisco.

Dorian Green had 12 points and Wes Eikmeier added 10 for Colorado State (15-7, 4-3 Mountain West).

Michael Lyons scored 16 points and Mike Fitzgerald 15 for the Falcons (11-10, 1-6), who lost their sixth consecutive game. Their coach, Jeff Reynolds, wasn’t around to watch the final 7:11, picking up his second technical foul for arguing calls at that point and calmly walking off the court, pausing to shake hands with Colorado State coach Tim Miles and every player on the Colorado State bench on his way to the locker room.

“I really can’t comment on that; it’s against the rules,” Reynolds said afterward, adding that he didn’t use any “cuss words.”
