The Snow College men's basketball team claimed a 112-48 victory against Central Wyoming College Wednesday as part of a neutral site match in Taylorsville.  The Badgers have won four straight and improved to 11-1 to begin the 2024-25 season.
 
The Badgers entered the game fresh off the heels of a 100-50 victory against the Rustlers.  Wednesday's matchup would follow a similar suit as the Badgers led wire-to-wire to claim their largest margin of victory of the season.
 
Snow College started the game on a 7-0 run as two layups from Mark Brown Jr. (So./South Phoenix, Arizona/Bella Vista Prep) sandwiched a 3-pointer from Chance Trujillo (Fr./Kaysville, Utah/Davis HS).
 
The Badgers led 13-6 five minutes into action before their offense exploded over the next 14 minutes of the first half.  Snow College went on a 48-12 extended run to take a 59-18 lead.  The Badgers shot 80 percent from the field (20-26) during that stretch and forced 13 turnovers.  They would take a 61-21 lead into the halftime break.
 
Snow College was met with little resistance in the second half as well.  The Badgers extended the lead to 43 points before going on a 20-0 run over a five-minute stretch to take a 102-39 lead with just over five minutes to play.  They would go on to secure the 112-48 victory.
 
As a team, the Badgers shot 62 percent from the field – the second-best shooting performance this season. They received 60 points off the bench for the first time since scoring 61 points in a victory against Community Christian College Feb. 18, 2023.
