A week ago, Kerr Kriisa had to leave Arizona’s game early due to an illness. A few days later, he still didn’t look 100 percent.
Whatever he had seems to have passed.
Kriisa hit six 3-pointers, the highest scoring of six Wildcats in double-figures in a 85-64 win over Montana State on Tuesday night at McKale Center.
It was the 26th consecutive home win for fifth-ranked Arizona (11-1) and the 44th in 49 games in Tommy Lloyd’s coaching career. A win Thursday at home against Morgan State will match him with three others, including Brad Stevens, for the best 50-game start to a coaching career at 45-5.
