The Wildcats are trying to shake off an upset loss at Utah on Thursday.
Bruce Pascoe Arizona Daily star Azoulas Tubelis scored 15 points and Oumar Ballo added 11 to help Arizona take a 42-33 lead over California at McKale Center on Sunday in the Wildcats' attempt to shake off a stunning loss at Utah.
Cal shot 39.4% from the field and made only 2 of 10 3-pointers but Arizona hit only 3 of 10 3s and only 9 of 14 free throws. Hitting just one of his first five shots, the former UA recruiting target hit a 3-pointer to make it 32-20 and then converted a four-point play when Pelle Larsson fouled Askew on his next 3-pointer. Then, after Ballo scored to give Arizona a 34-24 lead, two scores from Cal center Lars Thiemann cut the Wildcats’ lead to just six points with just 3:52 left.
Stuck in Cal’s slower pace for the first four minutes, and missing two early 3-pointers, the Wildcats were tied 6-6 with Cal before Tubelis powered them on a 14-4 run over the next six minutes.
