While the Aggies didn't blow any of their competition away at the Hawaii-Hilo tournament, they won their three games, claiming the tournament championship. Mark Brown was the MVP and Desmond Penigar made the all-tournament team. The biggest event of the weekend might be the health questions surrounding Mike Puzey however... Hilo, Hawaii (AP) - Spencer Nelson scored 17 points and had seven rebounds as Utah State defeated Hawaii-Hilo 71-60 Sunday in the final game of the round-robin Hilo Shootout. Utah State (5-0) led by eight, 38-30, at halftime, before the Vulcans (2-1) opened the second half with five unanswered points. The Aggies later went on a 7-0 run followed by a 7-2 run to expand their lead to 15 points. Mark Brown had 11 points and Mike Puzey added 10 for Utah State. Kyle Bartholomew led Hawaii-Hilo with 14 points. Derek Mgbeke had 13 points and Ryan Abrahams added 10. Brown was named the tournament MVP. He was joined on the all-tournament team by teammate Desmond Penigar, Abrahams, Drake's J.J. SOla and Greg Danielson, and Taylor Coppenrath of Vermont.
