Arizona Wildcats Basketball
Washington State came up with the 'perfect plan' to hand second-year coach Tommy Lloyd his first loss at McKale Center today.
The plan: force fifth-ranked Arizona to hit from the outside and pray the Wildcats will throw up some bricks.
Mission accomplished. The Cougars win, 74-61.
Arizona made just 4 of 25 from 3-point range, and the Wildcats' inability to score from the outside filtered all the way to the charity stripe as they missed 11 free throws on their home court. Bottom line: Arizona was a dismal 20 of 63 on field goal attempts and spent the entire afternoon trying to catch the Cougars.
The Wildcats, averaging 87 points a game, scored 27 points in the first half and only 34 in the second half, with Azoulas Tubelis answering the call for Arizona with 29 points and 14 rebounds.
Arizona falls to 14-2 overall and 3-2 in the Pac-12 Conference.
