After 19 lead changes, the Washington Huskies finally pulled away to give the Huskies (10-8) a big win over the Oregon State Beavers (3-14) and also gave Acting Head Coach Will Conroy his first coaching victory of his career. The Washington Huskies used balanced scoring and timely defense to pull out a 82-72 victory and by far the best offensive performance of the season.
The Washington Huskies came into Corvallis winning 3 of the last 4 games and hoping to keep the momentum going. The Huskies were faced with some pregame adversity when Coach Mike Hopkins was announced to be in Covid Protocol and would be missing the game.
