Written Story: Scott Wardwell

The Ducks took revenge 79-48 on the Sun Devils Sunday afternoon, who were responsible for one of their only two losses on the season. In a chippy game which totaled three technical fouls, the Ducks were able to pull away in the second half, putting up 55 points by getting hot from deep. Ionescu led all scorers with 19 points. Shelley and Boley also had good games, tallying 14 a piece.

The story of the game was the Ducks ability to turn around their slow pace in the first half and shoot well in the second. They finished 13-25 (52%) from long range, and 27-55 (49%) from the field.

The Sun Devils did not have the same success from deep. They shot just 4-13 (30%) from beyond the stripe. They also had trouble holding onto the ball as the Ducks forced them into 18 turnovers. The inability to hit open shots and keep control of the basketball limited their offense all afternoon as they were trailing big all…

It was business as usual for #3 ranked Oregon Ducks as the #12 University of Arizona Wildcats came to Matthew Knight on a Friday evening, in what started as a sloppy tightly contested game, that finished in a Ducks blowout. Matthew Knight once again showed out as the arena was packed for this game that showcased two of the top teams not only in the Pac-12, but the entire country. However the Ducks have been on a warpath recently as winners of eight straight, now nine, in a contest that once again emphasized how good this Oregon team can be even against top talented teams in the nation. The Wildcats themselves had been playing very well, not losing a game in over a month to, you guessed it, Oregon last month in Tucson. Cate Reese was the leading scorer for Arizona with 17 points. On the other side, Sabrina poured in another triple double (15-10-11) for the unprecedented…
