Bendu Yeaney survives injury scare, leads No. 10 Arizona past Utah in night full of milestones

Bendu Yeaney had her best game as a Wildcat and survived an injury scare on Friday as No. 10 Arizona cruised past Utah 66-54 in McKale Center.

The redshirt junior scored 11 of her season-high 14 points in the second quarter but headed to the locker room with 11 seconds left in the period after twisting her left knee trying to fight through a screen.

Yeaney writhed in pain for a few minutes before trainers assisted her to the locker room. Not only did Yeaney turn out to be fine, she started the third quarter and immediately found Cate Reese in transition for a layup.
