It seemed like a particularly poor omen that the Huskies, entering on a 4-game losing streak, had the start of this game delayed 30+ minutes due to a faulty basket that needed to be completely replaced. It led to a late night but turned out not to be a sign of things to come as Washington rallied in the 2nd half and overcome Oregon 72-71 in overtime. Keyon Menifield had a career high 27 points to go along with 6 assists and 5 rebounds as Washington improved to 14-13 (6-10) on the season.
After missing their first 11 shots on Saturday in Pullman the Huskies got off to a slightly better start tonight.
