Cardinal Snaps Three Game Losing Skid With 87-54 Win Over OSU
STANFORD, Calif. -- Kris Weems scored 17 points and Arthur Lee added 13 as
22nd-ranked Stanford avenged an earlier conference upset with an
87-54 rout of Pac-10 rival Oregon State.
Stanford (14-6, 7-5 Pac-10) snapped its three-game losing streak
and made up for an 86-77 defeat to the Beavers on January 18th.
Oregon State (6-15, 2-10) continued its woeful road play, losing
its 17th straight road contest and 13th consecutive conference
matchup away from home. The Beavers have dropped six of their
last seven and haven't broken the 80-point barrier in nearly two
months.
Oregon State was held to just four points in a 10-minute span
bridging the first and second halves. This continues the
Beavers' trend of prolonged scoring droughts during conference
matchups. In at least 10 other Pac-10 games this season, Oregon
State has gone cold from the field for at least a five-minute
span.
The game was tied at 19 following a free throw by Oregon State's
Terrill Woods with 4:37 left in the half. But the Cardinal
responded by going on 10-2 run to close the half. Brevin Knight
began the burst with a pair of free throws and David Moesley
followed with six straight points. A layup by Mark Seaton
capped the burst and gave Stanford a 29-21 lead at the break.
In the second half Stanford came out hot with a 16-2 burst that
broke the game open. Lee hit a pair of three-pointers and Weems
added five points during the spurt.
The Beavers made just 8-of-30 field goal attempts and were
outrebounded 22-12 in the first half.
