FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) -- Kyan Anderson scored a team-high 21
points and Devonta Abron added 17 points as TCU beat Southern
Utah 61-52 Thursday night.



The Horned Frogs (6-2) were aided by Abron's performance in the
second half, which included 13 points and four rebounds, and
helped TCU regain the lead and pull away from the Thunderbirds.



The Horned Frogs led 31-28 at halftime. Southern Utah (1-5)
grabbed a 38-37 lead when Damon Heuir made two free throws with
10:49 to play. Abron's layup put TCU back in front and they
stayed there the rest of the way.



It was still a five-point game after Jayson Cheesman's tip-in
for Southern Utah with 1:59 left, but Anderson's layup extended
TCU's lead to 54-47.



Heuir led all scorers with 25 points on 7-of-14 shooting.
Cheesman had 13 rebounds. Southern Utah shot 27 percent in the
second half and 33 percent overall.
