SEATTLE (AP) -- Jamie Craighead scored 16 points and No. 18 Oregon snapped a tie by scoring the game's final 14 points Thursday night to beat the Washington Huskies 67-53.
The decisive run began with the teams tied at 53 with 4:40 remaining.
Craighead hit 5-of-10 from the field, including 3-of-6 on
3-pointers. In her last three games, she has hit 11 of her last 17
from long distance.
Oregon (11-3, 4-0 Pac-10) has beaten Washington 10 consecutive
times.
Oregon lost starting forward and leading scorer Angelina Wolvert
to a knee injury just 4:55 into the game. Wolvert suffered a
sprained medial collateral ligament in her left knee while battling
for a loose ball.
After trailing 38-32 five minutes into the second half,
Washington (10-5, 3-2) went on a 13-2 run that put the Huskies
ahead 45-40 with 11:55 remaining. The run included back-to-back
3-pointers by Loree Payne and was capped by a long-distance shot
from Kellie O'Neill.
Then the Oregon defense tightened up down the stretch while the
Huskies struggled with the execution of their offense.
Brianne Meharry scored 11 for Oregon and Jenny Mowe added 10.
Washington was led by Payne's 14 points. Megan Franza scored 10
for the Huskies, while LeAnn Sheets scored 10 of her 11 points on
5-of-5 shooting in the first half. O'Neill matched a career-high
with 13 rebounds.
