SEATTLE (AP) — Freshman Isaiah Collier scored a career-high 31 points, including eight in the final 2 1/2 minutes, and USC defeated Washington 82-75 on Saturday.
A 3-pointer by Koren Johnson got Washington within 72-68 with 3 1/2 minutes remaining, just 3 minutes after Southern California had built a 15-point lead.
Collier took over a minute later, scoring on four consecutive USC possessions on a series of driving, spinning layups and one-handers. The fourth of those makes gave the Trojans an 80-75 lead with 28 seconds left. USC's Joshua Morgan iced the victory when he blocked a corner 3 by Anthony Holland and saved the ball from going out of bounds.
