Nowell, Dickerson pace Washington past UC Davis, 77-70
November 26, 2017 | Men's Basketball
SEATTLE (AP) — Freshman Jaylen Nowell scored 13 of his 21 points in the second half and Noah Dickerson added 18 points and 11 rebounds as Washington held off UC Davis 77-70 on Sunday night.
UC Davis rallied from a nine-point deficit to go in front 57-55 on Joe Mooney's 3-pointer, but the Huskies answered with a 9-2 run, going in front 64-59 on Matisse Thybulle's layup with 4:44 remaining. Garrison Goode's layup brought the Aggies within 67-65 with 1:52 left.
Nowell scored on back-to-back possessions to push the lead to 71-66 and Washington made 6-of-6 free throws from there to seal it.
David Crisp added 13 points and Thybulle 11 for the Huskies (4-2). Chima Moneke had 23 points and Siler Schneider added 15 for the Aggies (3-2).
Washington erased a 37-34 halftime deficit with a 14-2 run to open the second half. The Aggies shot 50 percent in the first half, but on their first eight possessions after the break, they missed four shots, including two 3-point attempts, committed two turnovers and missed 2 of 4 free throws.
The Aggies, who entered shooting 44 percent from 3-point range, offset poor long-range shooting early against Washington's zone by getting to the free-throw line for a three-point halftime lead.
UC Davis was just 1 of 5 beyond the arc, but was 10 of 12 from the line. Moneke had 13 first-half points for the Aggies.
Washington held a 17-11 rebound advantage in the first half, including seven offensive boards, but also committed 10 turnovers.
BIG PICTURE
Washington: The Huskies have fared well against mid-majors, but lost to Providence (77-70) and Virginia Tech (103-79). A true test of progress made under first-year coach Mike Hopkins will be consecutive games at Kansas on Dec. 6 and home against Gonzaga on Dec. 10.
UC Davis: The Aggies, who made the NCAA tournament last season for the first time in school history, rely on defense. In their first four games, UCD was 3-0 when allowing less than 60 points, and was outscored 80-71 in its only other loss this season.
UP NEXT
Washington completes its run of three home games in five days on Tuesday night against Kenesaw State.
