Lawrence, Kan. — Dedric Lawson had 20 points and eight rebounds, and No. 2 Kansas beat Wofford, 72-47, on Tuesday night after center Udoka Azubuike left with a right high-ankle sprain.

The Jayhawks (7-0) once again started sluggish and led by three at halftime. A second-half push kept their undefeated season alive, as they outscored the Terriers 43-21 after the break and 26-6 in the final 10 minutes.
