Down 76-60 with 4:45 left, the Huskies went on a 17-2 run, closing within 78-77 on Quimari Peterson's 3-pointer with 36.7 seconds to go. Clark was fouled on a three-point attempt at 14.5 seconds and he pushed the lead back to 81-77, but Zoom Diallo answered with a three-point play with 8.7 remaining.
Donovan Dent was fouled with 4.9 seconds to play but he missed the second free throw. Diallo's 3-point attempt from the right wing was too strong at the buzzer.
Dent had 17 points and eight assists for the Bruins (6-2), who have won eight-straight conference openers.
Hannes Steinbach had 29 points on 11-of-12 shooting and 10 rebounds for Washington (5-3). Diallo added 19 points and Peterson and Wesley Yates III each had 12.

Jamar Brown and Clark closed the first half with 3-pointers for the Bruins for a 36-32 lead. Clark kept the hot hand he had in the first half, scoring the first basket of the second half.
