C.J. Wilcox scored a career-high 24 points – all in the second half – in leading Washington to a 70-63 win over UCLA.

Wilcox made 7-of-8 field-goal attempts and was 4-of-5 from three-point range.

"I don't think I've ever been a part of a game where a player like C.J. Wilcox did what he did in the second half," Washington coach Lorenzo Romar said. "I've never seen a freshman do what he did in the second half, and I was part of a (NCAA) championship team.

"You rarely see a freshman, unless he's one of those heralded one-and-done freshmen, put a team on his back like he did in the second half."
