Malik Reneau scored a season-high 22 points and grabbed six rebounds as Indiana defeated Washington 78-62 in a Big Ten Conference game Saturday afternoon in Seattle.

Luke Goode scored 18 points, making five 3-pointers, and Mackenzie Mgbako and Myles Rice added 10 points apiece for the Hoosiers (18-11 overall, 9-9 Big Ten), who have won three straight and four out of five.

Zoom Diallo scored 18 points and Mekhi Mason, Tyler Harris and Franck Kepnang had 10 each for the Huskies (13-16, 4-14), who lost their fourth in a row and remained in last place in the 18-team conference. Washington leading scorer Great Osobor was limited to four points on 0-for-5 shooting from the field.

The Hoosiers took a 44-30 halftime lead as Reneau, who missed Wednesday's victory against Penn State as he was hospitalized with an illness, came off the bench to score 14 points on 6-for-6 shooting from the field.

Trailing 5-3, Indiana went on a 12-0 run to take the lead for good and extended the margin to as many as 16 with 7:03 left in the half.

Washington responded with an 8-0 run, getting 3-pointers from Wilhelm Breidenbach and Diallo, to halve the deficit.

A pair of inside baskets by Reneau, a 3-pointer by Luke Goode and a tip-in by Reneau put the Hoosiers back up by 15.

The Huskies opened the second half with a 7-0 run on two jumpers by Tyler Harris and a 3-pointer by Diallo, but they went scoreless over the next five minutes. The Hoosiers put together a 7-0 run during that span to double their lead to 14.

Indiana took its largest lead of the game, 67-46, with 6:34 remaining.

The Hoosiers shot 49.2 percent from the field (30 of 61), including 9 of 23 from 3-point range. They limited the Huskies to 36.2 percent shooting (21 of 58). Thanks to Reneau, Indiana enjoyed a 35-10 edge in bench scoring and a 40-24 margin in points in the paint.
