BOULDER, Colo. -- — Tristan da Silva couldn't miss as he scored a season-high 22 points and freshman Cody Williams had a career-high 21 for a second-straight game as Colorado built an early lead and rolled to a 91-66 win over Pepperdine on Sunday.

Da Silva went 5-for-5 from the field, hit both of his 3-point attempts and was a perfect 10-for-10 from the free throw line.

Williams' layup opened the scoring for Colorado (6-2) and had eight points in an opening sprint over the first nine minutes that resulted in a 28-12 lead. The Buffaloes took a 52-28 lead at the break and cruised to the win by shooting 31 of 54 from the field (57.4%), including 7 of 13 from deep (53.8%), and converting 22 of 28 at the free throw line (78.6%).

Williams was 9 of 13 shooting, hitting both of his 3-point attempts. KJ Simpson hit 6 of 7 from the floor, knocked down both of his 3-point attempts and his lone free throw attempt. Julian Hammond III came off the Colorado bench to hit 4 of 6 shots and adding four assists.
