Players looking forward to intriguing Civil War
By ANNE M. PETERSON
Associated Press
CORVALLIS — When
the Oregon State Beavers
say they’re looking forward
to the Civil War, they really
mean it.
In recent seasons the team
hasn’t always seemed quite
as sincere about the prospects
in facing Oregon, which
has an eight-game winning
streak in the rivalry.
But it has been a disap-
pointing season for the
Ducks, who are 4-7 overall
and 2-6 in the Pac-12, and
likely won’t play in the
postseason for the first time
since 2004.
Oregon State, which is
3-8 overall but has an iden-
tical conference record as
the Ducks, likes its chances
at home, especially after a
42-17 victory over Arizona
at Reser Stadium this past
Saturday night.
The Beavers are definitely
fired up.
“Everyone in Oregon is
probably going to be there,
so we’re looking to win that
one, too,” said cornerback
Dwayne Williams.

season after both Darell
Garretson and backup Conor
Blount were injured, threw
for 265 yards and a career-
best five touchdowns against
the Wildcats.
Oregon State announced
on Monday that the Civil War
game was already a sellout.

remember for the rest of their
lives. “
The Ducks will be moti-
vated, too.
Oregon is coming off a
30-28 upset of then-No. 11
Utah, a victory that was sealed
by Justin Herbert’s touchdown
pass to Darren Carrington
with two seconds left.

OREGON: Ducks bring added defensive pressure in second half
Marquette upsets Beavers
CORVALLIS — Natisha
Hiedeman and Allazia
Blockton combined for 47
points and Amani Wilborn’s
layup with 13 seconds left
lifted the Marquette women
to a 74-73 upset of No. 22
Oregon State on Tuesday
night.
Hiedeman hit five 3s,
scored 24 points and had
six assists, Blockton had 23
points and seven rebounds.
Gabriella
Hanson’s
jumper gave Oregon State
(4-1) a 71-65 lead with
3:09 to play. Hiedeman hit
a 3-pointer and Blockton
made 4 of 4 foul shots as
sometimes by win-loss
records or where you sit
in the season. This game
is a big game every year
regardless of the situation or
the scenario,” Beavers coach
Gary Andersen said. “Our
kids understand that, they
know that and it’s a privlege
and honor for them to play
in it. It’s a game they’ll
back Ryan Nall predicted a
fun game. Nall has rushed
for 796 yards and nine touch-
downs, but his season has
been marred by a foot injury.
“We’re going to take off
with momentum. Oregon also
came off a big win, so they
are going to come after us,”
Nall said. “They’re not going
to just going to think, ‘Oh, it’s
Oregon State. We beat them
every year.’ It’s going to be a
fun game. We’re coming off
a big win; they’re coming off
a big win. We’ll see who can
execute the best.”
Nall’s Oregon counter-
part, Royce Freeman, has
had two straight games with
100 or more yards, and seems
to have bounced back after a
midseason lull. Freeman has
839 yards rushing and nine
touchdowns.
“The last two weeks have
been better, there’s still time,”
coach Mark Helfrich said. “He
did some great stuff absolutely
like you’re saying, that’s the
quote-unquote ‘old Royce.’
That was good to see.”
In the end, however, the
game may come down to
defense, where both teams
are struggling.
Oregon is ranked 126th in
the nation for total defense,
allowing an average of 528.2
yards a game, and 126th in
scoring defense, allowing
42.1 points per game.
The Beavers are allowing
averages of 433.3 yards
and 31.1 points per game.
They’re ranked 88th in both
categories.
Andersen cautioned not to
be fooled by Oregon’s slump
this season.
“Do I worry about our
kids getting over hyped? No,
we talked about it today,”
Andersen said. “You walk
into these games and you
respect your opponent. You
expect to go out and play
well, you expect to win, and
that’s what you do against
every opponent that you
play. Does this game have
a little extra energy, a little
extra juice? It should because
it’s your last regular season
game of the season. You’re
playing against your rival.”
Walton and yelled: “Come
on Bill!”
“I thought he was going
to drive it,” Altman said of
Brooks’ game-winner. “When
he pulled it up, it was one of
those no, no, great shot.”
Tennessee (1-3), which
lost to No. 16 Wisconsin
in its tournament opener,
struggled against the Ducks’
constant defensive pressure.
The Vols had 25 turnovers
and shot 37 percent, though
managed to keep the Ducks
within reach. Shembari
Philips hit two free throws
with 30 seconds left in regu-
lation, but Tennessee could
not come up with the big shot
it needed in overtime.
OSU
73
Marquette took a one-point
lead it’s first of the quarter
with 77 seconds remaining.
A layup by Marie Gulich
put OSU back in front,
73-72, with 29 seconds left
before Wilborn’s winner.
Katie
McWilliams
missed a potential winning
3-pointer with 3 seconds left.
Gulich made 8 of 12
from the field and scored
a career-high 20 points for
OSU. Sydney Wiese added
15 points and 11 assists.
Detrick Mostella led
Tennessee with 22 points.
“I keep saying I really like
our team,” Tennessee coach
Rick Barnes said. “We keep
getting better and better each
time out, certainly coming
here and playing against
the level of competition is
proving that our guys can
compete. And now we’ve got
to learn to win games”
Oregon had a disap-
pointing tournament opener,
digging a 17-point first-half
hole before a furious second-
half rally fell short.
The Ducks slow-started the
second game as well, missing
their first six 3-pointers and
10 of 13 shots overall.
Tennessee stumbled out
of the gate in its opener as
well and did it again in the
Day 2 early game, opening 3
for 16 to keep Oregon in it.
Both teams started hit a
few shots and were tied at
32-all by halftime.
It got worse for the Vols to
start the second half.
Sped up by Oregon’s
pressure defense, they threw
balls out of balls and missed
shots from all over the court.
Tennessee had nine turnovers
in the opening 8 1/2 minutes
and missed eight of its first
nine shots to fall behind 45-42.
Despite
Tennessee’s
struggles, the Ducks could
not pull away. Oregon had its
own issues with turnovers and
missed shots, so was unable to
push the lead past single digits.
“We didn’t come out of
the locker room with the
kind of energy we needed,”
Barnes said. “We fought
back. We kept our poise even
when we’d been down.”
BIG PICTURE
Oregon won ugly and is
still trying to find its groove
with Brooks back. Getting a
game-winning shot by their
best player could be the spark
the Ducks need.
MISSING VOLS
The Vols played without
point guard Jordan Bone,
who was limited to seven
minutes in the opener due to
a foot injury. Power forward
Admiral Schofield also was
out due to unspecified reasons.
