Bears Fall To Huskies In Home Finale
2/24/2018 3:48 PM | Men's Basketball
BERKELEY -- Jaylen Nowell scored 23 points and Washington used a 16-2 run midway through the second half to pull away to a 68-51 victory over California in Pac-12 Conference play on Saturday.
The Huskies (19-10, 9-7), rebounding nicely from a poor performance in a loss at Stanford on Thursday, also got 16 points and nine rebounds from Noah Dickerson.
Cal led 43-39 when two free throws by Dickerson triggered a decisive six-minute run. Dickerson had eight points in the burst, including a spinning drive through the lane that made it 55-45 with 10:20 left.
But the memorable play during the UW rally was a spectacular right-handed tomahawk dunk by freshman Nahziah Carter over Cal walk-on Cole Welle, who had just entered the game as a senior in the Bears' final home game of the season.
The Washington lead eventually climbed to 64-49 with 3 1/2 minutes left.
Darius McNeill scored all 17 of his points in the first half for the Bears (8-21, 2-14), and fellow freshman Justice Sueing added 12 points.
