TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - Cate Reese had 17 points and nine rebounds, Aari McDonald scored 13 with nine assists and eight rebounds and Arizona beat Colorado 63-51 on Sunday.

Dominique McBryde scored 13 points making all five of her shot attempts including a pair of 3-pointers and a foul shot for the Wildcats (17-8, 7-7 Pac-12), who have won three of their last four.

Annika Jank's jumper gave Colorado (11-14, 1-13) a 9-7 led before Arizona closed out the first quarter with an 11-3 run and maintained a safe distance the rest of the way.
