Wildcats 17-0!



Arizona Wildcats Basketball


T.J. McConnell and Brandon Ashley combine for 38 points and 10 assists as the Arizona Wildcats become the first basketball team in school history to start the season 17-0 with a 73-53 Pac-12 win over USC tonight in Los Angeles.

Arizona returns home with its No. 1 ranking in tact and will take a breather before taking on arch-rival Arizona State Thursday night at McKale Center.

McConnell canned 7 of 12 field goals tonight, including five three-pointers, while Ashley connected on  7 of 10 shots and hit 5 of 8 from the free throw line as Arizona led at the half 34-31 before running away from the Trojans in the second half. The Wildcats outscored USC in the final 20 minutes 39-22.

Nick Johnson and Aaron Gordon also finished in double figures, Johnson with 15 and Gordon ended up with 12 points to go along with eight rebounds.

Way to go, Wildcats!
