Beavers Finally win, beating Stanford, 87-80.

By HD.

The Oregon state beavers were struggling lately, losing 4 straight games, (Washington State, USC, UCLA, and Oregon), well tonight was different. The Beavers finally pulled out a win over Stanford, 87-80. Here's what happened.....

Oregon State outscored Stanford 13-5 in the last 2:18 to claim an 87-80 win at Gill Coliseum on Thursday night.

Jared Cunningham had 17 of his team-high 21 points in the second half for Oregon State (10-16, 5-10 Pac-10), which had lost four straight and 10 of its previous 12.

Calvin Haynes added 14 points and Roberto Nelson 12 points for the Beavers, who shot 32 of 52 from the field after hitting just 36.6 percent of their shots in the previous eight games.

Jeremy Green had 24 points for Stanford (13-14, 6-10), which has now lost four straight.

The lead was traded three times in the last five minutes before Cunningham's three-point play with 1:29 left put the Beavers ahead for good at 80-77. After a Stanford miss, Oregon State's Devon Collier scored after grabbing an offensive rebound.

Cunningham and Haynes had dunks off Collier assists in the closing seconds to ice the game.

The game was much different then the loss at Stanford earlier this season. The Beavers had 2 slams at the end of the game. Jared Cunningham getting a break away dunk and then Calvin Haynes dunked it with just 1.3 left.

The next game will be vs. California, (15-13, 8-8 in Pac-10). Oregon state will go to 10-16 and 5-10 in Pac-10.

Beavers Pull Off Huge Upset over #22. Washington.

By Hunter Hendrickson

The Last time the Beavers beat The Washington Huskies was Feburary 22,2007, That streak has been Now Broken.

The Oregon state beavers pulled out a huge win over the Washington Huskies on Thursday 68-56.

The Beavers were led By Jared Cunningham who had 19 Points after getting off to a very slow start to the game.

The Beavers Took a 53-50 lead then never trailed in the game again. Calvin Haynes also added 11 points for the Beavers.

Washington coming into this game was 22 in the nation, (based on the OMOC Sports poll), and tied for first in the Pac-10 with 20 Arizona.

Near the end of the game Washington started to bomb up three pointers and couldnt make any of them. The Beavers Out-rebounded the Huskies, 47-32.

The Huskie PG's were Terrible tonight. Isaiah Thomas had 7 Turnovers, Venoy Overton only had 4 points in a struggling Performance.

Jared Cunningham Said, "I am excited and hopefully we will beat Washington state and get a Sweep."

No Doubt Jared Is right. A Huge win for the beavers who go to 9-12 and 4-6 in the Pac-10. Huskies however will drop in the OMOC Sports poll.

Beavers pull out Much needed Win over USC.

By Hunter Hendrickson

2007. That was the last time USC has beat Oregon State at Gill Colisium in Corvallis Oregon. The same year we had 0 Pac-10 wins. The President was George W Bush, gas was about 2.80 a gallon, and the #1 hit song was, "Hey there Delilah." by the Plain white T's. Now, In 2011, The President is Barack Obama, gas is still 2.80$ and The #1 song is Only Girl, by Rihanna. Anyways, Oregon state trying to keep there Pac-10 hopes alive vs. the USC Trojans. They were able to do that 80-76. Heres what happened.....

A HUGE reason why Oregon state (8-9,3-3 in Pac-10) won this was because Jared Cunningham Efforts, he had 24 points and some clutch baskets in the Last Mintues to earn MVP on the game.

For the Trojans, (10-8, 2-3 in Pac-10), Nikola Vucevic had 26 points and 14 rebounds for a Double-Double. Jio Fontan had 14 points and 6 assist.

Besides Jared Cunningham, The Beavers had 3 other men in Double figures, The 2 seinors, Lathen Wallace had 12 points and Calvin Haynes had 11. Omari Johnson had a Double Double with 12 points and 11 rebounds.

The Beavers had a 16 point lead at half but blew it and Joe Burton had a Perfect Back door-No look pass to Cunningham for a Lay in. Seconds Later, Calvin Haynes stole the ball and layed it in for a 71-62 lead. The Beavers never trailed again. I was at the game, and When Calvin Haynes stole the ball away for a Lay in, it was at least louder than Autzen Stadium.

So, Oregon state goes to 8-9 and a even 3-3 in the Pac-10. Next, The Beavs will play at home vs. the Oregon Ducks. The Civil war!
