PULLMAN, Wash. — Jaz Shelley and Erin Boley hit back-to-back three-pointers down the stretch and freshman Maddie Scherr made a couple of key plays on the defensive end to help the No. 8 Oregon women's basketball team fight off an upset bid at Washington State on Monday, 69-65.
The Ducks (7-0, 5-0 Pac-12) led for less than seven minutes in the game, but made big plays down the stretch to extend their winning streak overall to 26 games, longest in the country. Monday's result was just the fourth of those 26 straight wins decided by single digits, and the first since a 74-66 win at then-No.
