Senior forward Jayde Van Hyfte stepped to the line with just under seven minutes to go in the fourth quarter. She nailed both free throws, cutting the Sun Devil deficit to five.
For Arizona State (9-8, 1-3 Pac-12), that was the closest they would be the rest of the game to regaining a lead in hopes of taking down No. 19 Oregon (14-5, 7-1) on Tuesday afternoon at Matthew Knight Arena in Eugene, losing 72-58.
Basketball is a game of runs, and it could not have been more true on Tuesday. After going up 7-0 in the opening minutes against Oregon, the Ducks would respond with a 17-0 run of their own and not lose the lead for the rest of the afternoon.
