Oregon with the ball and a chance to win. The Ducks get a shot off, to no avail. And in the first overtime, things don’t necessarily go the way the Ducks 76 would like. pc What is this, °° dejavu? The only difference for Oregon was that Thursday against Washington State, the Ducks were able to stay tied on their way to winning 87-83 in three overtimes. Oregon was not so lucky Saturday, when Washington closed the game with a 14-3 run despite the absence of leading scorer Todd MacCulloch on its way to an 86-76 overtime win in front of 7,385 fans at Hec Edmundson Pavilion. “I thought we did a good job until that two-minute mark or so,” Oregon head coach Ernie Kent said. “I could see the fa tigue setting in with [the Ducks]. We were having some mental lapses out there because of what this team has been through.” Terik Brown’s third basket of the over time, with one minute, 36 seconds re maining, gave Oregon its first lead since late in the first half at 73-72. Brown got another chance after Senque Clark hit two free throws, but his finger-roll shot missed off the back rim, and the Ducks would score just one more time, on Dar ius Wright’s three-pointer with 20 sec onds left.

Brown plays well at home Terik Brown fared well against the Huskies despite the pressure of playing at his home town By Tim Pyle Oregon Daily Emerald SEATTLE— Once again, Terik Brown and the Oregon men’s basketball team had victory well within reach at Hec Ed mundson Pavilion. But for the fourth time in Brown’s four year career, Washington spoiled his homecoming by outplaying the Ducks in the game’s decisive moments. Brown, who graduated from Seattle’s Mercer Island High School after leading the state in scoring with nearly 26 points per game as a senior, kept Oregon close in overtime by scoring seven of his team high 15 points. But the Huskies pulled away with a 14-3 run to secure an 86-76 win and deny Brown’s last shot at haunt ing the Washington faithful. Playing in front of family — including his parents and younger brother Bryan, a reserve guard for the Huskies — and friends, Brown produced his highest point total of the Pacific-10 Conference season and his best all-around game since being replaced by freshman Freddie Jones in the starting lineup in the Ducks' second league game. ‘ Td say that it was probably my first decent, OK game coming off the bendi," said Brown, a 6-foot-l, 179-pound guard. "It’s something that I need to get used to. It’s something that I need to learn, how to play well at all times, Turn to BROWN, Page 15 Ducks prevail overWSU With a 21-0 run, the Cougars shaved the Ducks’ 25-point lead down to 4 points in the last six minutes of the game By Joel Hood Oregon Daily Emerald Prior to Sunday’s tip-off, head coach Jody Runge warned her team of the shooting prowess of the Washington State Cougars. It was a warning the Oregon women’s bas ketball team seemed not to take seriously un til it was almost too late. After trailing 44-27 at the half, the Pacific 10 Conference’s third highest scoring team went on a 21-0 run midway through the sec ond half to cut the Ducks’ seemingly insur mountable 25-point lead to just four points with six minutes, 10 seconds to play. Five minutes later, Oregon’s lead was cut to just two points after Cougar guard Tricia Lamb, nailed a three-point shot to close to 64-62. But the Ducks (14-3 overall, 5-1 in Pac-10) hit five of seven free throws, and senior Natasha O’Brien sank a critical three-pointer down the stretch to hang on for a wild 72-64 victory over the streaking Cougars. “We had an emotional letdown out of the second half,” said center Jenny Mowe, who scored a team-high lb points and a career-high seven blocked shots Sunday. "The last eight minutes were pretty frantic. You can’t help but watch the scoreboard a little, lVMtlK 1' ,;'t but it comes down to a point MSKRMll when you just have to say ‘this game is ours.’” Oregon led by as many as 25 points in the second half and held a 60-3 7 advantage before Washington State went on its remarkable run. The Ducks committed 10 turnovers during the 11-minute stretch, which contributed to 21 unanswered points by the Cougars. "We just didn’t close them out,” guard Shaquala Williams said. “The way we started Turn to WOMEN, Page 14 Kipp Wettstein for the Emerald Shaquala Williams, who was named Pac-10 player of the week on Monday, drives past Washington State's Vic toria Harrod in the Ducks'72-64 victory on Sunday.
