With the help of senior forward Evan Battey’s nearly perfect shooting performance, the Colorado Buffaloes defeated the Utah Utes 84-71 prior to entering the Pac-12 tournament. After an unforgettable senior night at home against Arizona last week, Colorado has now gone undefeated in their last two games of the regular season.
It seemed like it was raining in Utah as the Buffs could not miss from the perimeter. CU made a total of 14 threes, where nine of them were made in just the first half. As Colorado entered halftime leading 50-29, Battey and sophomore forward Jabari Walker combined for 32 points as the two teams entered their locker rooms.
