Calling Utah State's Shannon Dufficy one of the best players in the Mountain West is no exaggeration. After all, she entered Saturday's game against Colorado State as the conference's leading rebounder and second-highest scorer.
Considering the impact that she has on the Aggies' success, it's no surprise she is the focus of opposing defenses. So when a team holds her in check for most of the contest, as the Rams did Saturday afternoon, chances are they'll be able to compete.
Despite their ability to do so, the Rams had no answer for her supporting cast as the Aggies ran away with a 72-53 victory.
