Arizona Wildcats Basketball
Arizona (36-2) turned a seven-point halftime deficit into a 15-point win over Purdue (30-9) with a 79-64 win tonight over the Boilermakers at the West Regional in San Jose, California, to punch its ticket to next week's NCAA Final Four.
Freshman Koa Peat led Arizona with 20 points, seven rebounds, and three assists, along with plenty of support from teammates Ivan Karchenkov with eight rebounds and 18 points, while Jaden Bradley and Brayden Burries each scored 14 points. Moe Krivas, with Tobe Awaka in foul trouble in the second half, grabbed 12 rebounds and scored six points.
Arizona, which set a school record for the most wins in a season, made its run in the second half without committing a turnover. The Wildcats canned 20 of 22 free throws and outscored Purdue in the paint 40-24.
Way to go, Wildcats!
