Freshman Tim Hardaway Jr. led a balanced effort with 20 points and Michigan boosted its NCAA Tournament hopes with a 70-63 victory over Michigan State Saturday afternoon in Ann Arbor, Mich.

The Wolverines (19-12, 9-9 Big Ten) took control early, grabbing an early 10-1 lead and then adding an 11-0 run later in the first half to go ahead, 33-19, with 2:25 left before the break. Michigan State got as close as two in the second half but could not complete the comeback.
