Springfield emerald sports Beavers rip Oregon 94-51 By Donald Coulter Otthm EmaraM CORVALLIS — Call it a debacle; call it a fiasco, but the bottom line is this — Oregon has never lost a game in its basketball history by as many points as it did Saturday Oregon State pummelled the Ducks by 43 points, 94-51, in a game that undoubtedly sent West Coast television viewers flipping the dial in search of / Love Lucy reruns Yes, the game was that boring, unless, of course, you were one of the throng of deafening Beaver fans at Gill Coliseum Or unless you are a fan of pressure defense, which Oregon State played to perfection "We wanted to put good pressure defense on them,' OSU guard Lester Connor said after the game. "We knew it would take the wind out of their sails " Indeed After Blair Rasmussen hit a turn around jumper to tie the score at four, the Beavers put on a dazzling display of full-court pressure. By unofficial Gount. the Ducks had the ball knocked out of their hands at least once in each of their next seven offensive series And when it wasn’t having the ball knocked away, Oregon helped the Beavers' cause by throwing the ball in the crowd Oregon State took advantage of the Duck miscues by running off 10 unanswered points over three minutes to up the score to 14-4 After that, it was off to the races for OSU The Beavers capitalized on 17 Oregon turnovers in the first half, while shooting 621 from the floor themselves, to take a 46-18 lead at the half The second half didn't get any better for the Ducks Oregon turned the ball over an additional 14 times, and though they entered the bonus with 14:09 remaining, the Ducks could convert on only 7 of 16 free throw attempts Oregon's major nemesis in the game was Conner. The 6-4 senior scored 18 points pulled down nine rebounds, and added six assists and six steals and a blocked shot in 35 minutes Connor stole the ball 11 times in the two games vs Oregon this CASH For Textbooks Mon.-Fri.

Perhaps Oregon's biggest loss came before the meet ever got under way. Senior all-American Bill Nugent, who had just returned from international competition in Russia, was forced to sit out his final home match after injuring his leg in practice Thursday. The sometimes-fiashy Lorenzo West filled in for Nugent at 142. but lost 16-6 to the Beavers' Curt Berger Then, Beaver all-American Brad Swartz ruined the perfect season for Oregon senior Barry Boyles with a takedown just seven seconds from the end of his match The 8-5 win was the 29th of the season for the defending Pac-10 champ at 150 For Boyles it was a tough way to bow out at home as he fell to 16-1-2 on the year The home team put together back-to-back wins by Rick O'Shea (158) and Keith Beutler (167) to open the second half and drew to within three at 14-11. but that was the Ducks' last hurrah. At 177, OSU’s Jim Baumgardner pushed Oregon s Charles Nutter around to the tune of 16-1, sealing the Ducks' fate in the process All that remained was for Owen Engleman to round out his Duck career on a sour note, a 9-3 loss to OSU’s Chris Bielenberg in the heavyweight match Warren, Miller set records From Associated Press reports Oregon track stars Leann Warren and Lexie Miller were in the news over the weekend as both established world indoor records Saturday Warren, running in the Citizen Indoor games in Ottawa established the record for the womens indoor 800 meters Miller set the women's 300-meter indoor mark in the Vandal Indoor in Moscow, Idaho Warren’s time of 2 minutes, 5.8 seconds in the 800 meters erased the old mark of 2:07.5 set at these games in 1979 by Wendy Knudsen of the United States Miller broke her own mark of 43.5 by running a 42 65 in the 300 meters.
