Tony Wroten scored 22 points and ended a pair of rallies with three-point plays, lifting Washington to a 60-54 win over Arizona State on Thursday night in Tempe, Ariz.

Washington, 13-7 overall and 6-2 in the Pac-12 Conference, labored offensively in the first half and struggled from the perimeter all game, making only one of eight shots from three-point range.

Wroten provided the spark by hitting nine of 12 shots, including a second-half dunk over Jonathan Gilling for a three-point play that put the Huskies up seven. He added another three-point play to make it 53-46 with just over a minute left.

Arizona State (6-14, 2-6) never fully recovered after going scoreless for more than six minutes to open the second half.

Gilling hit five three-pointers and had 20 points to lead the Sun Devils, who lost their third straight without leading scorer Trent Lockett, who is out with a right ankle sprain.

at Arizona 79, Washington State 53: Kyle Fogg scored 20 points and Solomon Hill added 17 for the Wildcats, who made 15 of 26 three-point shots. Fogg scored 18 points in the first half as Arizona (14-7, 5-3) built a 42-27 lead..

Faisal Aden, the reigning Pac-12 player of the week after scoring 33 against Stanford and 24 against California ? both Washington State victories ? left the game with what appeared to be a serious left knee injury with 4 minues 2 seconds left in the first half. Brock Motum scored 18 for the Cougars (11-9, 3-5).
