The Huskies stormed the Ducks in the se cond half of the NorPac conference contest to ease out an 83-67 win. Washington went into the locker room at the half down 42-36, but the Huskies came back out to blitz the Ducks 17-4 in the opening minutes of the second half. Dur ing that stretch, the Ducks shot a measley 2-for-8 from the floor and turned the ball over four times. “We didn’t have the intensity to win," understated Oregon coach Elwin Heiny. The Ducks lack of intensity showed with 30 turnovers. And the Huskies stayed with Ducks on the boards, snagging almost the same number as Oregon. The Huskies victory Saturday is the first in 12 games against the Ducks. Alison Lang and Helen Higgs paced the Ducks with 21 and 13 points respectively. Higgs grabbed 12 rebounds and Lang dished off throe assists. Karen Murray, with 25 points and nine rebounds, and Rene Avelino with 19 points and seven rebounds led the Huskies The loss dropped the Ducks to 8-3 in league action, and bumped them into a tie with California for second place. The Huskies mov ed up to a tie for fourth with San Jose State and gives them a chance at making the final four conference tourney March 5-6, in Eugene. The loss marred what could have been a good road trip for the Ducks. Two days earlier Oregon slapped Washington State with an 86-70 loss. Lang and Chris Metzger led the Ducks — Lang with a game high 30 points in just 26 minutes of game time and Metzger with 25 points, 10 rebounds and six assists in 31 minutes. “We played well Thursday and did not play well Saturday,” was ail Heiny could muster about the road trip. Heiny will try and use a 10-day break to tune the Ducks up for Oregon State and the up coming conference tournament.
