March 8, 2012
Staples Center
Los Angeles, Calif.
Oregon State is the first No. 9 seed to defeat a No. 1 seed in Pac-12 Tournament history (0-5 all-time entering today's game).
This is the Beavers' first win over a No. 1 seed in Pac-12 Tournament history (0-5 entering today's game with four losses to Arizona and one to UCLA).
Oregon State's 19 wins is the most in a season since winning 22 in 1989-90.
This is the fourth time Oregon State has advanced to the Pac-12 semifinals. In 1988, 1989 and 2005, the Beavers only had to win one game to reach the semifinals.
This is the second season Oregon State has won two games at the Pac-12 Tournament. The other was 1988 when the Beavers advanced to the championship game with two wins before losing to Arizona, 93-67.
The Beavers are now 2-12 this season when trailing with five minutes to play with their wins over Texas, 100-95, on Nov. 19 and today against Washington.
Oregon State is now 13-1 when shooting 50%-plus from the field after hitting that number exactly (32-of-64) today.
The Beavers are now 5-0 this season when five players score in double-figures (Devon Collier 19, Jared Cunningham 18, Ahmad Starks 14, Joe Burton 14, Eric Moreland 13).
Joe Burton (14 points, 10 rebounds) recorded his fourth career double-double and third this season.
Jared Cunningham (18 points, 10 rebounds) finished with his first career double-double. The 10 rebounds is a career-high besting the nine he had two times.
Cunningham tied a career-high with eight assists. He also had eight dimes against Portland State this season on Dec. 18.
Eric Moreland had a career-high 13 points. His previous career-best was 13 in the season-opening win over CSU Bakersfield.
Devon Collier (19 points) led the team in scoring in back-to-back games for the second time in his career. The first time was earlier this season with 19 against Vanderbilt and 15 at Towson.
Ahmad Starks made four three-pointers for the second consecutive game and has now nailed 18-of-31 in the last five games.
