FRESNO, Calif. – Freshman Brian Hill had 283 yards rushing and 106 yards receiving in his first career start and Wyoming got its first road win of the season 45-17 over Fresno State on Saturday night.

Hill scored on touchdown runs of 32 and 66 yards and capped his night early in the fourth quarter with an 89-yard run that set up the first of Joshua Tapscott's two touchdown runs.

Colby Kirkegaard was 19 of 28 for 320 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions, and the Cowboys (4-5, 2-3 Mountain West) outgained Fresno State 696-318.

Marteze Waller had 18 carries for 118 yards and a touchdown for the Bulldogs (3-6, 2-3).
