Dec 6, 2009 - 4:35 AM By JOHN MARSHALL AP Sports WriterMANHATTAN, Kan.(AP) -- Dominique Sutton had 16 points and pressured Washington State's Klay Thompson into a frustrating night, leading Kansas State to an 86-69 rout of the Cougars Saturday night.
Kansas State (7-1) looked sharp coming off its worst game of the season, using a swarming defense to set up easy baskets on offense. Denis Clemente scored 17 of his 21 points in the second half to prevent a comeback and Jacob Pullen added 21 for the Wildcats, who scored 39 points off Washington State's 25 turnovers.
The Cougars (6-2) had no answer for Kansas State's pressure, fumbling their way to an insurmountable 20-point hole in the first half. Thompson, the nation's second-leading scorer, had 22 points, hitting all 11 of his free throws to get there.
