On his return to Cedar City, Evans said, “Enough time has passed that it doesn’t bother me to go back there. Maybe the first year I got a little emotional. This is a game on our schedule that we need to win.” ... Junior guard A.J. Hess leads SUU in scoring at 12.1 points per game. No one else averages double figures, but the T-Birds rely on a rotation of up to 13 players.
