Beavers Drop Thriller To Samford
November 18, 2021 | Men's Basketball
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Cooper Kaifes hit a go-ahead 3-pointer with 1:21 left in the game, Jerome Marshall followed with a layup and Samford held off Oregon State, 78-77, in a thrilling non-conference game on Thursday night at Gill Coliseum.
Â
Oregon State (1-3), trailed 42-32 at halftime, but battled back to take a 75-73 lead on a dunk by Warith Alatishe with 1:27 left to play. Kaifes followed with his 3-pointer and Marshall scored with 38 seconds remaining to put the Bulldogs (3-1) up 78-75.
Â
Dashawn Davis answered with a layup, but the Beavers failed to retake the lead despite forcing two Samford turnovers in the final 16 seconds.
Â
Alatishe scored 14 of his team-high 20 points in the second half for Oregon State. Ahmad Rand came off the bench to contribute 15 points and six boards, scoring 11 of his points after intermission.
Â
Davis had a great all-around game with 11 points, six rebounds, nine assists and only one turnover in 32 minutes.
Â
Jarod Lucas also scored 11 points, but had his streak of 13 straight games with multiple 3-pointers come to an end after sinking 1 of 4. Lucas' streak was the second longest in school history, behind only Chris Stephens (2002-06) who set the mark with 21.
Â
Ques Glover paced Samford (3-1) with 16 points and nine assists. Jermaine Marshall and reserve Jaden Campbell scored 14 apiece, while Kaifes pitched in with 11 points and six rebounds.
Â
It was just the second meeting between the schools. The Beavers beat Samford 87-66 in December of 1974.
