Beavers Fall To Utes In Salt Lake City
January 02, 2020 | Men's Basketball
SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – Tres Tinkle scored 19 points and Ethan Thompson and Zach Reichle added 15 apiece, but it wasn't enough as Utah defeated Oregon State, 81-69, in the Pac-12 opener for both teams on Thursday evening at the Huntsman Center.
Kylor Kelley grabbed a career-high 10 rebounds and blocked five shots. Alfred Hollins added eight points and Gianni Hunt chipped in six points off the bench.
The Beavers (10-3, 0-1 Pac-12) took an early seven-point advantage before the Utes (10-3, 1-0) rallied to take a 39-32 lead at the break.
Oregon State cut the deficit to three points multiple times in the second half, the final time on a fast break layup from Antoine Vernon that brought the Beavers to within 54-51.
Utah used a 16-5 run to extend its lead to 70-55 with 5:31 left. Riley Battin sparked the run with a 3-point play and Both Gach added the biggest highlight with a dunk off a steal. Battin and Gach combined for four baskets in that decisive stretch.
Timmy Allen posted a double-double with 25 points and 10 rebounds to lead Utah.
The Beavers will next play Colorado at 3 p.m. PT on Sunday at the CU Events Center in Boulder. The game will televised nationally on ESPNU.
