The Colorado Buffaloes basketball squad were victorious on Senior Day this Saturday, as they defeated the California Golden Bears, 54-46, at the Coors Events Center.
Four Colorado seniors were honored before tipoff: Xavier Johnson, Derrick White, Josh Fortune and Wesley Gordon. For two of those seniors, it would have a day to remember in their last game at the Keg. Guards Johnson and White combined for 36 points, 19 from Johnson and 17 from White. White went 5-of-11 from the field while Johnson shot 5-of-13.
But the affair wasn’t all glorious after the pomp and circumstance.
The Golden Bears dominated the glass in the first half, out rebounding Colorado 28-19.
