TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) - Eddie House scored 19 points as Arizona State pulled away in the final six minutes to beat Oregon State 75-64 Thursday night.
House, the nation's No. 6 scorer, helped the Sun Devils (12-8, 4-4 Pac-10) snap a four-game losing streak. He entered the game averaging 22.9 points.
The game was tied at 55 with six minutes remaining before Arizona State outscored the Beavers 20-9 the rest of the way.
House hit two 3-pointers down the stretch and Justin Allen converted five of six free-throw attempts in the last minute.
Brian Jackson scored 19 points to lead Oregon State (10-9, 2-6).
The Beavers employed a box-and-one defense that kept House from getting the ball for most of the first half.
House had seven points by halftime, all in the final minute as Arizona State took a 34-32 lead to the locker room.
Chad Prewitt finished with 15 points for the Sun Devils.
