Tomas Thrastarson - Drains four threes in win Thrastarson finished Monday's 81-71 victory over St. Thomas (MN) with 19 points (6-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and one block over 25 minutes.

Impact The sophomore forward enjoyed his best scoring night of the young season, as he was able to connect from three-point range for the first time. Thrastarson started 11 of 31 games as a freshman last year, but he's already started all three contests this year so far, so he should have plenty of scoring opportunities moving forward.

Eemeli Yalaho - Returns in exhibition win Yalaho (upper body) notched eight points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-6 FT), six rebounds and one assist in the Cougars' 74-66 exhibition win over New Mexico.

Impact Yalaho was extremely limited during the 2024-2025 season with Texas Tech, playing in just eight games and missing 23 of the last 24 games of the season. He found a new home in Pullman via the transfer portal, and now the Finnish-born forward appears primed for a sizable role with the Cougars. Yalaho appears slated for a starting role, or very close to it.
