No. 16 seed Colorado perfect at foul line late, holds off No. 9 seed TCU 69-67 in Big 12 tourney
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Andrej Jakimovski had 18 points, Julian Hammond III added 16 and Colorado was perfect at the foul line in the final 20 seconds, allowing the 16th and last seed in the Big 12 Tournament to hold on for a 69-67 victory over No. 9 seed TCU on Tuesday. Hammond made a pair of foul shots for the Buffaloes (13-19) with 20 seconds left for a 67-65 lead, and after TCU answered with a goal-tending call at the other end, Javon Ruffin made two more free throws with 5.8 seconds left to put the game away. TCU (16-16) also lost to Colorado last Saturday in the teams' regular-season finale. The Buffaloes, who returned to the Big 12 from the Pac-12 and are playing in the league's tournament for the first time since the 2011 season, will play eighth-seeded West Virginia on Wednesday for a spot in the quarterfinal round. Noah Reynolds had 17 points and Trazarien White scored 13 for the Horned Frogs, who trailed 63-50 with 5 minutes to go before scoring the next 10 points, making it a tense final minute for a small but loud crowd inside T-Mobile Center. Colorado is undisputedly playing its best basketball of the season. It dropped its first 13 conference games before winning three of its final seven entering the tournament. TCU can point to slow starts to each half as the biggest reasons for the loss. The Horned Frogs didn't make a field goal until there was 12:06 left in the first half, and they did not hit a field goal until the 15:09 mark of the second. Bangot Dak dunked off a nifty feed from Trevor Baskin to give TCU a 65-60 lead with just over a minute to go. Colorado went 18 of 24 from the foul line. TCU was just 10 of 20. The Buffaloes will play the Mountaineers in the second round Wednesday. ___ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 all season. Sign up here . AP college basketball: and
