SEATTLE (AP) --- Braeden Carrington had career highs of nine 3-pointers and 32
points, Nick Boyd added 22 points, and Wisconsin defeated Washington 90-73 on
Saturday.
Carrington, who averages 7.4 points per game, played 27 minutes off the bench,
making 9 of 15 3s. He was 6 for 9 from deep in the second half when he scored
23 points.
Boyd scored eight points in the first six-plus minutes of the game and the
Badgers led 14-3. Washington's Hannes Steinbach opened the scoring with a dunk
but the Huskies didn't get another field goal until Quimari Peterson's layup
with 12 minutes remaining made it 17-7.
Wisconsin (20-9, 12-6 Big Ten) led by double digits over the final six minutes
of the half and it was 36-21 at the break. A 10-0 run in the middle of the
second half put the game out of reach at 66-42.
Steinbach scored 22 points with 11 rebounds and Zoom Dialo had 21 points for
Washington. Wesley Yates III scored three points on 1-for-17 shooting.
It was Steinbach's 18th double-double of his freshman season, nine of them
coming when he scored 20 or more points.
Nolan Winter had 13 points and nine rebounds for Wisconsin. The Badgers average
more than 30 3-point attempts per game and were 17 for 38 (45%) in this one.
