Yoeli Childs poured in 31 points and TJ Haws added 20 in BYU’s 95-80 victory over Utah State, but the return of Nick Emery was the story of the night as the junior guard scored 11 points and provided defense and an emotional spark off the bench.
Emery made his impact felt immediately, as he swished a three seconds after checking into the game and added a steal and assist less than 30 seconds later. Nick was 3-4 from downtown, but it was his presence and effort that seemed to really energize the team, particularly in the first half when BYU jumped to a 19-point halftime lead.
