Explodes for 33 points Barcello contributed 33 points (10-12 FG, 9-10 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal over 34 minutes during Saturday's 91-85 victory over Pepperdine.

Impact Barcello not only delivered one of the best scoring performances in the entire Saturday slate, but he was also extremely efficient since he missed just two of his 12 shots and just one of his 10 three-point attempts. He's not going to score at such an efficient rate on a regular basis, but his role as BYU's main scorer is not under any sort of question.
