The Hispanic Alumni Association has created the Greg Trevino Memorial Scholarship, which will honor the university's former director of Inclusiveness and Intercultural Services, a university official said.

Kay Higgins, associate dean of student development, said the new annually awarded scholarship will be available for the first time next fall semester.

Trevino died in an automobile accident in May. He was regarded for his work and help in founding the Hispanic Alumni Association, said Bobby Montes, the current president of the organization.

For senior forward Kevin Langford, winning Saturday's game against the University of Nevada, Las Vegas and showing signs of improving as a team were far more important than becoming the 29th player in school history to eclipse the 1,000 career points milestone.

"The win was better than getting 1,000 points," Langford said. "We knew we could win, and now we have to go try to get the next one on the road."

Langford entered the game only needing one point to reach the 1,000-point mark and finished the game with nine points and three rebounds.

SAN DIEGO - Where Daryl Washington provided the physical replacement for missing linebacker Robert Henson - making plenty of big plays and big hits - senior safety Stephen Hodge provided the emotional charge that Henson usually supplies.

The two combined meant TCU's defense was tough to handle for Boise State in a 17-16 win for the Horned Frogs on Tuesday night in the Poinsettia Bowl.

Henson, the team's second-leading tackler during the regular season, missed the game because of academics.
