DENVER (AP) Joe Rosga scored 25 points and added a career-high nine rebounds as Denver opened up a two-game home stand with an 84-70 win over Western Illinois on Wednesday night.
Rosga hit four 3-pointers and finished 7 of 11 overall from the field. Daniel Amigo scored 13 points and Jake Pemberton finished with 12 points for the Pioneers (10-7, 2-2 Summit), who snapped a two-game skid.
