They say that basketball is a game of runs. It certainly was in McKale Center on Sunday afternoon. The Arizona Wildcats overcame the shifting momentum and inconsistencies on both offense and defense to take a 73-61 win over Oregon State.
The Wildcats took care of the ball and cleaned up on the offensive glass. Arizona turned the ball over just three times while taking advantage of 16 Oregon State turnovers to score 19 points. Eleven offensive rebounds gave the Wildcats 13 points.
Arizona also took advantage of getting to the line 18 times. For a team that averages just 10.
