 SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) - Jacob Burtschi loves playing at sea level. Away from Colorado Springs, he feels like he could play forever. Burtschi scored 21 points and Dan Nwaelele scored 14 of his 19 points in the second half to help No. 23 Air Force beat George Washington 66-52 in the first round of the Cable Car Classic on Thursday night.
Matt McCraw, in his second game back from an ankle injury, added 14 points as the Falcons (12-1) won their eighth straight.
Burtschi scored more than 20 points for the third time while playing in California this season. He scored his season high of 24 at Stanford in November and had another big game against Long Beach State.
