Buffs Fall To Bonnies in NIT Opener

BOULDER — Colorado's postseason came to a short and abrupt end Tuesday night, as the Buffaloes dropped a 76-68 decision to St. Bonaventure in the opening round of the NIT at the CU Events Center.

Tad Boyle's Buffs finished the year at 21-12 while the Bonnies improved to 21-9 and will face Oklahoma in the second round.

CU led by three at intermission and by 10 early in the second half, but could not sustain the cushion as the Bonnies came back by shooting nearly 56 percent from the floor in the final 20 minutes.
