EUGENE, Ore. — For a moment, it looked as though a furious fourth-quarter rally was going to help Oregon avoid an upset for the second time in three days. But only for a moment.
Two days after the UO women completed a comeback against Washington in the final five minutes, the Ducks made up an 11-point deficit to Washington State in the final 3:22 of regulation on Sunday at Matthew Knight Arena. Though a potential game-winning three by Ahlise Hurst was waved off due to a clock issue, Grace VanSlooten hit two free throws to force overtime.
