The Air Force men's basketball team took a 43-34 lead into halftime and never looked back in their 85-78 win over Boise State Wednesday night at Clune Arena.

Senior forward Lavelle Scottie led the way with a game-high 21 points, with A.J. Walker adding 18 and Ryan Swan chipping in with 17, respectively.

With the victory, the Falcons improved to 9-9 on the season and 3-3 in Mountain West Conference play.

Looking to move above .500 for the second time this season, AFA hosts Colorado State Saturday in their Coaches vs. Cancer game. Tip-off is set for 2 p.m.
