Jaime Jaquez Jr. scores 20 points, Adem Bona makes the winning basket with 19 seconds left and the 11th-ranked Bruins get stingy down the stretch for their ninth straight win, 67-66.
PULLMAN, Wash. — Mick Cronin preaches defense every season for a reason.
The Bruins won their ninth straight thanks to stingy defense in the final 10 minutes when the Cougars went cold shooting and allowed UCLA the chance to rally. Former JSerra High standout DJ Rodman led Washington State with a season-high 19 points and had a good look at a winning 3-pointer in the final seconds, but it hit the rim and UCLA won on the Palouse for only the third time in its last eight trips.
