STOCKTON, Calif. – Oregon State fought for the full 40 minutes and overtime, but dropped the conference opener to Pacific 66-63 on the road.

The Beavers got 17 points from AJ Marotte and 14 inside from Sela Heide, including a clutch jumper that gave OSU a late lead in the fourth quarter. Kelsey Rees added 10 points, including an 8-for-8 day at the free throw line.

Shuler and Rees each corralled eight rebounds and the senior forward dished four assists.

The Beavs overcame a difficult first half where they committed 16 turnovers with an excellent third quarter. OSU won the period 20-11 while making 60% of their shots from the floor and 2-of-4 from beyond the arc.

Oregon State made 8-of-11 free throws down the stretch of the game, but the Tigers couldn't miss from three. Pacific shot 62.5 percent from beyond the arc to claw their way into overtime.

Once there, Shuler made a floater to open the period but the Beavs couldn't get much to fall. Catarina Ferreira's would-be game-tying triple rattled in and out, ending the contest.

After a di to the 2024-25 season, the Beavs will have a 10-day break between games. UC Irvine is up next for Oregon State, with the Beavers hosting the Anteaters on December 15.
