Seattle, WA (SportsNetwork.com) - Jarell Flora buried 9-of-18 shooting for 22 points to lead his Seattle Redhawks past the Colorado Buffaloes, 72-65, in the quarterfinal round of the College Basketball Invitational at the Connolly Center.

Isiah Umipig netted 20 points, and Jack Crook chipped in with 10 for Seattle (18-15), which advances to the semifinal round of the CBI to take on the ULM Warhawks on Wednesday.

Josh Scott tallied a 17-point, 12-rebound double-double to pace Colorado (16-18), which was once again without leading scorer Askia Booker. Dominique Collier collected 11 points, and Wesley Gordon grabbed 10 rebounds in the defeat.

Colorado converted 41.4 percent of its first-half field goal attempts with a 4-of-10 mark from 3-point range to take a 31-28 lead into the intermission. Seattle was a bit cold in the opening frame, hitting just 37.5 percent of its shots.

But the Redhawks woke up in the second half and buried 60 percent of their tries from the floor, adding in 7-of-12 from beyond the arc and 13-of-20 at the free-throw line. The Buffaloes hit 17-of-25 at the charity stripe in the period, but were off everywhere else, connecting on a mere 25.9 percent shooting with a 3-of-15 line from distance as they surrendered the lead.

Seattle forced 14 Colorado turnovers, which the Redhawks converted into 21 points. The hosts also held a 26-18 advantage in points scored in the paint in the win.
