Strong second half pushes CU basketball to exhibition win against Mines

The glut of turnovers throughout the first half was both familiar and alarming for the Colorado men's basketball team. But the turnaround after the break certainly was encouraging.

Following a mistake-filled first half during an exhibition match against Colorado Mines, the Buffaloes finally put it together after halftime, completing the competitive portion of the preseason with a 66-57 victory Saturday afternoon at the CU Events Center.

When the Buffs resume practice on Tuesday, they will have a week to review and correct the mistakes on display Saturday before hosting Drake in the season opener on Nov. 13.
