Analysis: Washington’s ‘other’ freshmen step up big in 64-56 win over Oregon State

Washington continued one of the longest – and strangest – streaks of dominance in the Pac-12 with a 64-56 win over Oregon State on Thursday night.

It’s the 16th straight win for the Huskies over the Beavers in Seattle dating back to 2004.

Washington improved to 12-5 overall and 2-3 in the Pac-12.

Here are three impressions.

NO JADEN, NO PROBLEM

Freshman star Jaden McDaniels missed his first game of the season due to an ankle injury suffered last Saturday at California.

Normally, the absence of UW’s second-leading scorer, rebounder, shot blocker and playmer would be cause for concern.
