Oregon cagers halt skein
Ducks come back in second half
to surprise Huskies in Seattle
By Donald Coulter
OIK* EmmrmU
Oh, no, not Oregon'.
This thought must have crossed Marv Harshman's mind
Saturday night as the Washington basketball coach watched his
team blow a 12-point lead to the Ducks and eventually lose,
82-78.
Oregon, you see, wasn't the most threatening of teams
going into the game. The Ducks had lost 9 of their previous 10
Junior forward Jerome Williams turned the game around for the
Ducks, as Oregon came back to defeat the Huskies 82-78.
games, and by the took of things, it seemed as if they would go
winless until next December
The Huskies, meanwhile, were still in the thick of the
conference race with an 11-3 record, just a game-and-a-half
behind Oregon State
But there was one very big intangible weighing in Oregon's
favor. The developments of the past week — the humiliating loss
to OSU, the (fismissal of Barry Walker and the questions
surrounding the future of head coach Jim Haney — garnered so
much attention that the actual game of basketball paled in
comparison
To divert that attention back to the basketball court,
Oregon’s players and coaches reasoned that they would have to
make a big showing in Seattle
But in the first half, it was Washington which d*d all the
showing off as the Huskies took control of the boards, and
Oregon fell behind quickly With four minutes to go in the half,
the Ducks trailed by 12, 37-25, en route to what surely seemed
like their seventh straight loss
Oregon crept back in the game with some inspired defense
and the scoring of Fred Cofield to close the gap to 39-33 at
halftime Cofield's shooting — he finished with a career-high 22
points and was 5 of 7 from the floor in the second half —
continued to help Oregon after the intermission
But it was Jerome Williams who turned the game around
Williams, who did not start the game, took command of the
boards on both ends of the court He scored 19 points — all in the
second half — and grabbed 10 rebounds as the Ducks outscored
Washington 12-4 midway through the half to take an 11-point
lead
From there, the Ducks struggled to hold on to the lead,
which Washington cut to two points in the final minute After
some key free throw shooting by Williams and John Greig,
Jerome put the lid on the game with a slam dunk in the closing
seconds and the Ducks won by four, 82-78
The win was Oregon's first road victory this season after six
defeats It ends the Ducks longest losing streak in seven years,
and ups their record to 4-9 in the conference. 9-13 overall
Oregon travelled to Pullman after the game for tonight s
contest against Washington State The game is scheduled to
start at 8 and will be televised on Channel 12 The Cougars,
fifth-place in the Pac-10 with a 8-6 record, lost to Oregon State
40-36, Saturday night
