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

season To put this accomplishment in proper perspective, it is
important to know that only one Oregon player — Jerome Williams
— has more steals than that, though it took him 12 conference
games to do it
While Connor was having a stellar game, Oregon's two
forwards — Williams and John Greig — weren't Greig, who came
into the game as the Pac-10's third-leading scorer with an 18 1
average, was held to no field goals and just three points Williams,
second in the conference in rebounding with a 9 5 average, could
muster only two boards against the Beavers
OSU had five scorers in double figures — Connor and Danny
Evans with 18 each, William Brew, 13, Charlie Sitton, 12, and A C
Green with 10 The win raises the sixth-ranked Beavers to 18-3 on
the season, and 11-1 in the Pac-10 The loss was Oregon's sixth in a
row, its longest losing streak in 10 years, to give the Ducks a 3-9
conference record, 8-13 overall
OSU wins low weights,
wrestling Civil War
Oregon’s wrestling team played the perfect host Friday
night, giving Oregon State’s wrestlers and their fans every
thing they wanted, including an easy 28-11 dual meet wres
victory over the Ducks
"There is no question they outwrestled us ” said Duck
coach Ron Finley. “They really came at us ’’
Mark Rodriguez opened the match for the Beavers with a
17-9 decision over Duck senior Randy Ohta at 118. and at
126. junior Mike Erb fell to OSU s Cliff Berger
"We just lost it in the early matches," said Finley. “I was
counting on Ohta and Erb to come up with wins for us, " he
said.
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

meters.
