CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) — Sterling Carter scored 19 points and Aaron Broussard added 15 as Seattle snapped Virginia’s five-game winning streak with a 59-53 victory on Wednesday night.
Broussard also added 10 rebounds for the Redhawks, who had lost two straight games.
Virginia (8-4) welcomed leading scorer Mike Scott back into the lineup, but it didn’t make much difference.
The senior co-captain, who had missed the previous two games with an ankle injury, was rusty. In 31 minutes off the bench, Scott had 12 points and eight rebounds.
Seattle (5-10), which led by as many as 10 in the first half, led 30-23 at the break.
Early in the second half, the Redhawks built on their momentum. Back-to-back buckets by Cervante Burrell — a circus shot in the lane and a jumper — gave Seattle a 41-30 lead.
