BOSLER, Wyo. (Interstat) — In a defensive struggle defined by missed shots and forced mistakes, the Colorado State women’s basketball team methodically dispatched Wyoming 62-48 on Saturday afternoon at Arena-Auditorium, sweeping the season series. The Rams, now 21-7 overall and solidifying their position in the Mountain West Conference, never trailed but were never fully comfortable until a decisive fourth-quarter push. The victory was anchored not by offensive fireworks but by a stifling defensive effort that held the Cowboys to 32.1% shooting from the field and generated 16 points off 11 Wyoming turnovers. The game’s most critical sequence arrived late in the third quarter, just as Wyoming threatened to make a contest of it. After a 3-pointer from Wyoming’s Karoline Lundin cut Colorado State’s lead to 35-32 with 1:19 left in the period, the Rams’ offense had grown stagnant. But on the ensuing possession, senior forward Madelyn Bragg of Aberdeen, South Dakota, answered with a crucial layup off an assist from Brooke Carlson. Bragg then blocked a Jane Rumpf layup attempt on the other end, securing the defensive rebound. That two-possession swing halted Wyoming’s momentum and preserved a five-point Rams lead entering the final quarter. Colorado State then put the game away with a 12-2 run over a five-minute span in the fourth. The Rams’ defense tightened further, forcing multiple empty Wyoming possessions, while the offense finally found consistent success inside. Lexus Bargesser of Grass Lake, Michigan, and Kloe Froebe of Lincoln, Illinois, combined for three layups during the run, and Bragg added another, pushing the lead to 54-44 with 2:21 remaining. Wyoming, which scored a season-low 48 points, could not muster a response, getting no closer than eight points the rest of the way. Bragg led all scorers with 15 points and added seven rebounds. She was joined in double figures by Bargesser and Carlson, who each also scored 15 points. Carlson, a guard from Batavia, Illinois, filled the stat sheet with five assists and four rebounds. Froebe contributed 14 points and five rebounds. The Rams’ balanced attack overcame a poor 2-for-13 shooting performance from beyond the arc by dominating the paint, outscoring Wyoming 40-14 inside. Wyoming, which fell to 9-17, was led by Henna Sandvik of Helsinki, Finland, with 12 points and eight rebounds. Malene Pedersen of Aabyhoej, Denmark, added 13 points. The Cowboys’ effort was hampered by offensive inefficiency, managing only three assists against 11 turnovers. Despite collecting 12 offensive rebounds, they could not convert those second chances into sufficient points. The first half set the tone for a grind-it-out affair. Both teams opened cold from the field, with the score just 6-6 midway through the first quarter. Colorado State built a modest 16-8 lead after one period and maintained a similar margin for much of the half, taking a 30-18 advantage into the locker room. Wyoming’s shooting struggles were acute, as they made only 7 of 30 field goal attempts in the opening 20 minutes. The Cowboys showed more life in the third quarter, using an 8-2 spurt to close within 32-28. Payton Muma of Highlands Ranch, Colorado, hit two 3-pointers in the period, but each time the Rams had an answer, usually from Bragg or Carlson in the lane, to keep Wyoming at arm’s length before delivering the final knockout punch in the fourth. Defensively, Colorado State’s Hannah Ronsiek of Sioux Falls, South Dakota, was a presence with five rebounds and two blocks. The Rams’ backcourt pressure, led by Carlson and Froebe, who had two steals apiece, disrupted Wyoming’s offensive flow throughout. The win marks Colorado State’s third straight victory as they continue a strong February. They will host UNLV next Wednesday. Wyoming, mired in a difficult season, looks to regroup on the road at Air Force, also on Wednesday.

Preview: Colorado State at Wyoming Women’s Basketball BOSLER, Wyo. (Interstat) — The Colorado State Rams, riding a three-game winning streak, will look to continue their push near the top of the Mountain West standings when they visit the Wyoming Cowgirls on Saturday, Feb. 21, 2026, at Arena-Auditorium. The Rams (20-7, 8-4 MW) enter the contest after a 70-59 home victory over Nevada on Wednesday, where Madelyn Bragg and Kloe Froebe each scored 17 points. Colorado State has won five of its last seven games and boasts one of the conference’s best overall records. Wyoming (9-16, 4-8), meanwhile, seeks to rebound from a narrow 56-54 home loss to Boise State last Saturday. The Cowgirls have struggled for consistency but showed a flash of high-level play with an 82-72 road win at UNLV on Feb. 11. This matchup is a quick rematch of a Feb. 7 meeting in Fort Collins, which Colorado State dominated, 83-54. In that game, the Rams’ defense stifled Wyoming, holding them to 30.6% shooting from the field. A key player to watch for Colorado State is Bragg. The guard is coming off a strong 17-point performance against Nevada and averaged 12.3 points in three games last week. For Wyoming, forward Henna Sandvik is a consistent focal point. She recorded a double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds in the loss to Boise State and exploded for 25 points in the win at UNLV. The Rams have found success with balanced scoring, as evidenced by three players reaching double figures against Nevada. Wyoming will need to improve its offensive efficiency after shooting just 32.8% in the first meeting and will rely heavily on Sandvik’s all-around production. Saturday’s game tips off a critical final stretch for both teams as the regular season winds down. Colorado State aims to solidify its seeding for the Mountain West tournament, while Wyoming looks to play spoiler and build momentum at home. Following this game, Colorado State hosts UNLV on Feb. 25. Wyoming travels to face Air Force on the same date.
