NASHVILLE, Tennessee (Ticker) -- Chantelle Anderson, Zuzana Klimesova and Jenni Benningfield recorded double-doubles as Vanderbilt remained unbeaten at home in the NCAA Tournament with a 65-59 win over Colorado in a Midwest Region second-round game.

Anderson collected 22 points and 10 rebounds, Klimesova added 20 and 10 and Benningfield had 11 and 11 for Vanderbilt (23-9), which improved to 12-0 at home in the NCAAs.

Anderson made 8-of-13 shots and continues to lead the nation in field-goal percentage at 73.0. In four career NCAA Tournament games, the 6-6 sophomore is shooting 74.5 percent (35-of-47).

The game was tied 10 times before a jumper by Klimesova put the Commodores ahead for good, 50-48, with 11:17 remaining.

Jenny Roulier's basket got Colorado (23-9) within 56-55 with 6:47 to play, but Vanderbilt held the Buffaloes without a basket for the next 4 1/2 minutes and extended to a 61-55 lead as Klimesova nailed a 3-pointer and Jillian Danker made two free throws.

Roulier scored 17 points and Eisha Bowman added 14 for Colorado, which was outrebounded, 38-24, and made only four trips to the foul line.

Vanderbilt will face Iowa State in the regional semifinals on Saturday in Denver.
