BOISE, Idaho (AP) - Robert Arnold scored 19 points and grabbed a team-high seven rebounds to lead Boise State to an 82-63 victory over Hawaii on Thursday night.
Boise State (14-16, 4-11 Western Athletic) kept alive its hopes of qualifying for the conference tournament next week, while Hawaii (10-19, 3-12) needs a win Saturday against Idaho and some help to make it in.
Leading 38-37 early in the second half, Boise State went on an 18-6 run in a four-minute span to all but bury Hawaii.
Ike Okoye and Daequon Montreal each added 13 points for Boise State.
Hawaii, which allowed a season-high 11 three-pointers, was led by Leroy Lutu with 12 points off the bench, while Adhar Mayen added 10.
