March 09, 2019 | Men's Basketball
PULLMAN, Wash. – Tres Tinkle scored 26 points and grabbed 12 rebounds and Oregon State beat Washington State 85-77 on Saturday afternoon.
Stephen Thompson Jr. added 26 points for the Beavers (18-12, 10-8 Pac-12). Ethan Thompson scored 17 points with a career-high 11 assists and five rebounds and Kylor Kelley scored all 10 of his points in the second half.
With the win, Oregon State secured a first-round bye in the Pac-12 Tournament, which begins Wednesday at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.
Oregon State wrapped up Pac-12 play at 10-8 for its first winning season in conference play since the 1989-90 team finished 15-3 and won a share of the Pac-10 title.
Robert Franks scored a career-high 37 points and grabbed nine rebounds for Washington State (11-20, 4-14), which has lost five straight. Jeff Pollard added 13 points and CJ Elleby grabbed 12 rebounds.
Oregon State took its first lead, 46-45, in the opening minutes of the second half after an 8-0 run capped by Kylor Kelley's 3-point play.
Thompson Jr.'s jumper and 3-pointer capped a 7-0 run for Oregon State over 2:24 and the Beavers blew the game open with a 10-0 run over 2:14. Back-to-back 3's from Zach Reichle and Thompson Jr. sparked the run and Alfred Hollins' jumper gave OSU a 16-point lead with five minutes remaining.
WSU closed to within six points with 27 seconds left on Franks' 3 and two free throws, but the Cougars got no closer.
