Garcia was 8 of 15 from the field, including 2 of 5 from distance, and was 5-for-5 from the line to lead the Gophers (6-3). Brennan Rigsby hit 4 of 8 from beyond the arc and added 14 points.
Freeman hit 5 of 7 from three-point range and finished with 21 points and dished off five assists to lead the Wildcats (2-6). Thomas was 3 of 5 from behind the arc to add 18 points and Ward added a double-double with 11 points and 10 rebounds.
