Buffs Use Big Second Half To Roll Past Prairie View A&M

BOULDER — Colorado played solid defense for 40 minutes and the Buffaloes' offense came alive down the stretch Thursday night, lifting CU to an 83-64 win over Prairie View A&M at the CU Events Center.

The Buffs improved to 9-2 while Prairie View dropped to 3-8.

Colorado led by just five with 10 minutes to play, but used a 17-3 run over a three-minute stretch late in the second half to pull away for good, building the lead to as much as 24 in the final minutes.

Evan Battey led the Buffs with 20 points and nine rebounds while Tyler Bey had 13 points and seven rebounds. D'Shawn Schwartz also had 13 points for Colorado — all in the second half, including three 3-pointers in CU's decisive run.…
