Pac-12 basketball: Washington defeats Washington State in OT

Andrew Andrews scored 29 points, including two free throws with 3.4 seconds left in overtime, to lift Washington to a 99-95 victory at Washington State on Saturday afternoon.

Dejounte Murray scored 25 points for the Huskies (11-4, 3-0 Pac-12), who remain alone in first place.

Ike Iroegbu led Washington State (9-6, 1-2) with a career-high 28 points. Josh Hawkinson added 21 points and a career-high 20 rebounds. Hawkinson’s 10th consecutive double-double broke the school record he shared with Steve Puidokas, who set the record in 1975-76.

Hawkinson pressured Andrews into missing a jump shot near the free-throw line as time expired at the end of regulation. Washington outscored Washington State 12-8 in overtime, when the Cougars missed three of five free throws in the final 2:27.

Noah Dickerson, one of four Huskies (and three starters) who fouled out, finished with 16 points. Malik Dime added 14.

Charles Callison scored 14 points for the Cougars.

Washington State had a 49-43 lead at halftime. The fast-paced game slowed in the final seven minutes of the half because of a steady stream of fouls and free throws.

Murray, one of four freshmen in Washington’s starting lineup, scored 13 of the Huskies’ 17 points in the first seven minutes. Iroegbu, who scored a season-low four points against UCLA in Washington State’s previous game, scored 12 of the Cougars’ 21 points in the first 10 minutes. Murray and Iroegbu both finished with 16 points in the half.
