The Air Force men's basketball team topped Colorado Christian 85-73 Friday night in their exhibition opener at McClune Arena.

Five Falcons reached double-figures in scoring, including preseason Mountain West First Team member Lavelle Scottie. The forward paced AFA with 16 points on the night.

Head Coach Dave Piliopovich's squad took a 47-32 lead into the second half and never looked back as they shook off the rust less than a week before their regular season begins.
