No. 21 WSU Beats No. 4 Arizona, 77-74, in Late Night Thriller

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) -- Jaylen Wells hit one of the biggest shots in recent Washington State history to lead the program to a thrilling road victory.

His only regret is he didn't get to see it.

Wells had a crucial 4-point play in the final minute and scored 27 points to help No. 21 Washington State beat No. 4 Arizona 77-74 on Thursday night for its eighth straight victory.

"This is big," Wells said. "There's a lot of moments we could have folded. But we stayed poised, kept fighting back. I think it's a big win for us, just because people thought we were the underdogs.
