Men’s Basketball Pulls Away From TSU, Prepares for FLA A&M

Stephen R. Sylvanie-USA TODAY SportsThe men of Oregon defeated Tennessee State University at Matthew Knight Arena on Friday November 17. The Tigers shot a respectable 50% from the floor and used a strong defensive sequence to go on a 16-5 run late in the 1st half to close within 3 points. The Ducks stretched the lead out to 48-40 at the intermission, but had looked far from dominant against their smaller school opponents. The drama disappeared from the game quickly beginning at the 17:48 mark of the 2nd half when Jadrian Tracey’s 3 pointer began a 20-2 run for Oregon. Tennessee State never got closer than 20 points after this, and the Ducks cruised to a 92-67 victory. The 92 points is the most for Oregon since the 2021 season.
