Lojeski hit all seven of his 3-point attempts as he and Ahmet Gueye celebrated Senior Night.
It was also a farewell game for UH coach Riley Wallace, who was coaching his final home game in his 20-year career as head coach for the Rainbows.

UH finished the regular season at 18-12 overall and 8-8 in the WAC. Boise State finished 16-13 and 8-8.
Boise State is the No. 6 seed in the WAC Tournament and will play Fresno State.
