Dallas Walton scored a career-high 22 points, Jeriah Horne added 16, and the Colorado Buffaloes routed the Washington Huskies 92-69 at the Far West Classic in Las Vegas on Sunday night.

D'Shawn Schwartz added 13 points, and Keeshawn Barthelemy and Maddox Daniels had 10 points each for Colorado, which has won three in a row.

Riley Sorn had 16 points and eight rebounds, Nate Pryor finished with 15 points, Marcus Tsohonis scored 14 and Quade Green had 12 for the Huskies (1-6). This game was a nonconference matchup between Pac-12 foes.

McKinley Wright IV came into the night leading the Buffaloes in scoring at 17.8 points a game but had just five points. Colorado didn't need his offense in a game it controlled from the start.

The Buffaloes (5-1) never trailed and were tied just once, 2-2, before pulling away early. Colorado held the Huskies scoreless for almost five minutes and ripped off a 9-0 run in which Schwartz hit a 3-pointer and a jumper.

Jamal Bey's 3-pointer for Washington broke the string, but the Buffaloes kept expanding their advantage. Walton drained a jumper, Daniels and Barthelemy hit 3-pointers and Horne added a bucket as part of 10 straight points that extended the lead to 21-5 with 12:19 left in the first half.

Colorado built to a 20-point lead on Eli Parquet's jumper while the Huskies didn't break into double digits until Sorn's dunk with 8:33 left in the first half made it 29-11.

The Buffaloes went on a quick 8-2 run to go ahead 43-17 with 4:35 left. The Huskies cut the lead to 19 late in the first half before Daniels' 3-pointer made it 52-30 at the break.

The Buffaloes shot 60 percent from the field and 50 percent from behind the 3-point line in the first half.

Colorado led by as many as 36 in the second half before Washington closed the gap in the final minutes with a 15-0 run.
