WSU secures first-round-bye, program records, in 73-67 win over Cal.

The Washington State Cougars finished the 2021-22 regular season with a 73-67 win over the California Golden Bears on Saturday.

Despite a 22-point WSU lead midway through the fourth quarter, the Golden Bears forced the Cougars to sweat out the final minutes of the game, going on an 18-2 run to bring the game within six with 40 seconds to go. But, the clock ran out on the Cal comeback attempt as the Cougars were able to slip away with a historic six-point win.

The win clinched WSU a first-round bye in the Pac-12 tournament.
