Buffs defeat UCLA, 80-76, sweep Bruins in season series

The Colorado Buffaloes faced UCLA at the Coors Event Center on Sunday afternoon on Senior Day and sent their seniors off on a high note by winning their final home game of the season, 80-76 ending a three-game losing streak.

The last time the two teams met back on Jan. 13, senior guard George King’s double-double propelled the Buffs to a 68-59 road victory, which was the first time the Buffaloes bested the Bruins at Pauley Pavilion.

This time around, the Buffs had more offensive balance, with five players scoring in double digits. The win marks the first time in program history that the Buffs have swept a season series against UCLA.
