The teams traded punches in the latter phase of the opening frame, with Portland taking a 39-38 lead into the break. Suutela and Munch both ended the half in double-figures.

Oregon State retook the lead on a White 3-pointer less than a minute into the second period. The Beavers used an 11-1 run to take a nine-point lead with 13 minutes left on the clock. The Pilots immediately responded to get back within one, and went back in front shortly thereafter.
