AIR FORCE ACADEMY, Colo. (AP) - Andrew Henke scored a career-high 21 points on 6-of-8 shooting from three-point range to lead Air Force to a 57-36 win over TCU Wednesday.

Tim Anderson added 12 points and dished out five assists and Anwar Johnson had a career-best six assists for Air Force, which had 18 assists on 18 field goals in the game.

The victory keeps Air Force (15-13, 7-8 Mountain West) in a tie for fifth place in the conference with one regular-season game remaining, while TCU (14-14, 6-9) drops to seventh.

Air Force led 24-17 at the break and took charge early in the second half despite the 3-point shooting of Keion Mitchem, who finished with 16 points to lead TCU scoring.

The Falcons led by 17 at 49-32 in the second half and TCU could get no closer than 11 points as Air Force coasted to the win.

The win completes a season-series sweep for the Falcons, who won the earlier meeting 56-46 in Fort Worth.

Air Force finishes regular-season play on Saturday, hosting San Diego State at 1 p.m.
