Sophomore forward Arianne Boyer blew past Oregon State, corning up with several key bas kets en route to a 17-point, five rebound performance in the Civ il War matchup. Boyer had 10 ol her 17 points in the second half, ns the Ducks pulled away from the Heavers after a narrow 3(1-31 lend at halftime. "We did smart things down the stretch," Boyer said.
