Sun Devil Men's Hoops Silences McKale, Down the Wildcats 89-88
TUCSON, Ariz. - One of the most storied rivalries in college basketball witnessed the latest installment of thrills and memorable moments as Desmond Cambridge Jr. and Arizona State Men's Basketball sunk the No. 7 Arizona Wildcats on a halfcourt heave at the buzzer, 89-88 Saturday at the McKale Memorial Center in Tucson.
The astonishing scenes were exacerbated by comeback heroics and tense momentum swings. In front of a hostile, sold-out crowd, Arizona State (20-9, 11-7) resisted an 11-point second half swing, trailing by as many as 10 with 6:30 left in regulation.
From that juncture, the Sun Devils allowed just one field goal and finished the contest on a 21-10 scoring advantage.
