(12) Arizona 71, (13) Cleveland State 57
No. 12 Arizona dodged potentially disastrous foul trouble to beat No. 13 Cleveland State 71-57. The Wildcats’ five starters scored all but two of the team’s points, led by junior point guard Nic Wise’s 21 points. Wise and junior forward Jordan Hill finished with four fouls, and the other three starters had three fouls. Not known for its suffocating defense, Arizona held the Vikings to 37 percent shooting from the field and 3-of-23 shooting from behind the arc. Without the long ball, Cleveland State couldn’t hang with the Wildcats.
