Ducks Drive To Fifth Straight Win

EUGENE, Ore. — The Oregon women's basketball team held the Pac-12's most prolific offense to its third-lowest point total of the season Wednesday, and the Ducks caught fire offensively after halftime to beat Utah, 70-66, in Matthew Knight Arena.

At halftime, the 19th-ranked Ducks (12-5, 4-1 Pac-12) trailed 29-28; they were on pace to hold the Utes well below their scoring average of 82.3 points per game, but they hadn't taken advantage of it due to 1-of-14 three-point shooting. But the Ducks shot 62.5 percent in the second half, including 4-of-9 from three-point range to win a game that was tied 60-60 with 2:34 to play.
