CORVALLIS — Scott Rueck drew up a play that ultimately left Katie McWilliams free in the corner. Her 3-pointer bounced off the rim three seconds before the final buzzer sounded, sending Marquette players into celebration on the Oregon State logo at midcourt.
Marquette's 74-73 upset of the No. 22 Beavers at Gill Coliseum Tuesday night completed the Golden Eagles' pre-Thanksgiving sweep of the reigning Pac-12 regular-season co-champions, as they also topped Arizona State in Milwaukee over the weekend. It also gives OSU its first home loss since last December, when Tennessee outlasted the Beavers in a thrilling top-15 showdown.
