FORT WORTH — Gabe Madsen scored 17 points, Keanu Dawes added 16 and Utah never trailed in a 73-65 victory over TCU on Wednesday night. Lawson Lovering added 11 points and Mike Sharavjamts 10 for Utah (10-6, 2-3 Big 12). Jake Wahlin grabbed 11 rebounds to go with eight points.

TCU trailed by double digits most of the second half, but did make a late charge to cut Utah’s lead to 65-59 with 1:09 left on the clock. The Horned Frogs got a stop and had a chance to cut it to four, but Allette’s layup at the rim was blocked and TCU’s comeback attempt fell short.

A couple of top 25 teams are facing off on Friday, Jan. 17 when the No. 10 TCU Horned Frogs host the No. 23 Utah Utes in a women’s college basketball game at Schollmaier Arena in Fort Worth, Texas.
