In dramatic fashion, the Colorado Buffaloes defeated the Quinnipiac Bobcats in the first round of the Paradise Jam Friday night. Freshman guard McKinley Wright IV scored a buzzer-beating three-point shot to give the Buffs the win.
Despite the victory, not all was going smoothly for the Buffaloes in this one.
Colorado led Quinnipiac by three points at the halftime break, but their assist to turnover ratio once again impeded the Buffaloes from breaking away from the Bobcats. Colorado had only three assists while turning the ball over 11 times in the first half.
What also kept Quinnipiac in the ballgame was their ability to rebound offensively.
