SEATTLE, Wash. – The No. 22-ranked Oregon State men's soccer team dropped its regular-season finale Friday evening, as the Beavers fell to No. 25 Washington 2-0 in Seattle.

The Beavers finish the regular season with a record of 10-5-3, the team's best win total since 2014. Oregon State also went 6-3-1 in Pac-12 play to finish the year second in the conference, recording its highest Pac-12/10 win total since 2003.

The defeat snaps Oregon State's six-match unbeaten streak, the program's longest such streak in conference play since 2003.

The Beavers controlled the run of play for most of the opening half hour, but were unable to find a breakthrough. Freshman goalkeeper Adrian Fernandez came up with a diving save in the 22^nd minute to keep the match level in the early going.

Senior Hassani Dotson looked as though he might open the scoring in the 35^th minute, when his back-heel shot narrowly missed putting the Beavers in front. Washington went ahead late in the first half, scoring in the 44^th minute.

Dotson came close to leveling the score in the 56^th, heading a corner kick from freshman Adrian Crespo off the post. The Huskies doubled their advantage four minutes later, on a deflected shot that found its way into the net.

It was Dotson again narrowly missing in the 62^nd, as his header forced a sprawling save from the Washington goalkeeper.

Fernandez made a diving save in the 79^th to keep the Beavers in the match. The freshman finished with five saves in the contest. Oregon State pressed forward in the closing stages of the match, but could not get on the board as the Huskies took the win.

The Beavers will now await the NCAA Tournament Selection Show, which will take place Monday morning at 10 a.m. PT.
