Arizona advances to title game at Hawaiian tourney


The fourth-ranked Arizona Wildcats made it look easy in the first two rounds of the Hawaiian Airlines Diamond Head Classic. After a 20-point win in the tourney opener over East Tennessee on Saturday, the Wildcats came back tonight in Honolulu and dismantled the Miami Hurricanes, 69-50. The Wildcats hit 8 of 18 three-point attempts and led by any many as 26 in the second half. Coach Sean Miller picked up his 200th career win and his hot-shooting guard Mark Lyons led the Wildcats with 19 points. Center Kaleb Tarczewski had a career-high 13 rebounds to go along with his eight points. The Wildcats improve to 11-0, one of just five unbeaten teams in the country. Arizona will be tested on Christmas night when they go up against 18th-ranked San Diego State in the title game.
