Pret ty hard to believe, isn't it? There should have been some in d i c a t i o n Thursday night that Stanford (26-1 overall, 17-1 Pac-10) was beginning to struggle. Matt Lottich's buzzer-beater saved the Cardinal from its first loss in a 63-61 win over Washington State in Pullman two nights before the team's matchup with Washington. The Huskies never let Stanford get close enough for last minute heroics in a 75-62 victory. Now St. Joseph's (27-0) remains the only undefeated team in the country. "We were one game away from something pretty special, and we did n't get it done," Stanford head coach Mike Montgomery said. "It will take a while to get over that." It's only the second time that Washington has upset a No. 1 team. The Huskies did it in 1979 in an up set of UCLA. Washington forced Stanford into 18 turnovers and the Cardinal made only three trips to the free-throw line. Washington connected on 24 of 30 free throws. io "I said repeatedly that one day 1 saw this coming," Washington head coach Lorenzo Romar said. "I didn't know it would happen this year. I thought it would be great if we could knock off the No. 1 team and get into the tour nament. It's awfully exciting to be in this position." Despite the loss, Stanford is still the Pac-10 regular season champion and is still seeded No. 1 for the Pac-10 Tournament, which starts Thursday. Coming to a close In a 63-60 loss to USC on Satur day, Oregon State's season came to a close without a bid to the Pac-10 Tournament. In a blowout 106-81 loss Saturday, Arizona State's season also came to an end at the hands of in-state rival Arizona. Oregon State (12-16, 6-12) and Arizona State (10-17, 4-14) finished in ninth and 10th place, respectively. Only the top eight teams play in the conference tournament. Erik R. Bishoff Photographer Chris Hernandez and the Cardinal lost for the first time this season last week to Washington. Stanford finished the Pac-10 season 17-1, easily finishing first in Pac-10 play. McMillan named Newcomer of the Year Southern California junior forward Jeff McMillan was named the 2003-04 Pacific-10 Conference Men's Basket ball Fred Hessler Award winner, hon oring the conference's Newcomer of the Year. McMillan is averaging 11.3 points and a team-high 8.7 rebounds per game for the Trojans. He also leads the conference in shooting, posting a 63.8 percent mark from the field. McMillan came to the team prior to the 2003 season from Fordham. NCAA transfer rules stipulated that he sit out last season. McMillan is the third Trojan to be honored as Pac-10 Newcomer of the Year since the award began in 1993. Oregon's Andre Joseph received the honor in 2003. Cougars make the tourney With a 70-58 win against California on Saturday, Washington State quali fied for the Pac-10 Tournament. The Cougars (13-15, 7-11) return to the Pac-10 Tournament for the first time since 1990, when all 10 teams played. Contact the sports reporter at jessethomas@daiiyemerald.com. DOWN continued from page 7 was that she did it while playing with a tom lateral meniscus in her left knee, an injury she suffered in the loss to the Huskies. Wagner's injury was one of many that hampered the Ducks this season. Point guards Corrie Mizusawa and Kay la Steen battled through knee troubles and Ganes played most of the season with a sore ankle. Despite everything that went wrong r for Oregon this season, there were a few bright spots that speak well for Ore gon's future. Mizusawa finished the season with 180 assists, 10 short of the Ore gon single-season record. Forward Eleanor Haring was named to the Pac-10 All-Freshman Team, estab lishing her as one of the best young players in the conference. With every player except Steen re turning next season, Oregon head coach Bev Smith said the Ducks have something to look forward to. STUDENT GROUPS Achreirtise in ffcc jEwcmM.
