LOS ANGELES (AP) --- Trent Perry scored 23 points, Donovan Dent had 17 points,
10 assists, six rebounds and three steals, and UCLA beat Washington 77-73 on
Saturday night.
Tyler Bilodeau added 19 points in 23 foul-plagued minutes for UCLA (17-7, 9-4
Big Ten) and Eric Dailey Jr. finished with 14 points.
Washington trimmed its deficit to a point midway through the second half and a
layup by Wesley Yates III made it a two-point game with 5:50 left, but Bilodeau
answered with a three-point play, Dailey hit a jumper and Dent made a layup
that gave the Huskies a 67-58 lead with 1:37 to go. UCLA made 10 of 12 from the
free-throw line the rest of the way to seal it.
Yates led Washington (12-12, 4-9) with 21 points, Hannes Steinbach scored 13
and Quimari Peterson had 12 points and a season-high seven assists.
Skyy Clark (hamstring) did not play for UCLA.
The Bruins have won four straight against Washington and lead the series
112-44, 71-8 in Los Angeles.
The Huskies used an 8-2 spurt to open an eight-point lead --- their biggest of
the game --- but UCLA scored 13 of the next 16 points to take its first lead of
the game when Perry hit a 3-pointer that made it 25-23 with 6:15 left in the
first half.
