CU Buffs survive a second half scare to beat Eastern Washington

The Colorado Buffaloes (7-2, 1-1 in Pac-12) avoided a three-game losing streak as they eeked out a 60-57 win against Eastern Washington at the CU Events Center. After losing back-to-back games against top-15 opponents, the 4-4 Eagles felt like a get-right game for CU.

The game was anything but for the Buffaloes after letting their 15-point first-half lead disappear in the second half. Sophomore forward Jabari Walker felt that the Buffs have been too forgiving in letting teams get back into games instead of putting teams away by building leads.

“I think we got to figure out how to get a lead and maintain a lead,” said Walker.
