LARAMIE — The Wyoming basketball programs split results Tuesday night, as the Cowboys stayed unbeaten with a 79-65 home win over Austin Peay, while the Cowgirls dropped their road opener at UT Arlington, 64-44.

In Laramie, the duo of Damarion Dennis and Uriyah Rojas combined for 42 points to power the Cowboys to their first 3-0 start since the 2021-22 season.

“We got tougher in the second half and give Austin Peay credit our guys weren’t ready to handle the pressure in the first half,” Wyoming head coach Sundance Wicks said. “I’m proud of the second half effort and our helpers (assists) were good and we did a great job defending the three-point line. The competitive effort for 40 minutes needs to be better, but I’m never going to be upset about a win.”
