Oregon State finally has a chance to get back on the court and redeems themselves with a 79-70 win.
The game started off tight with Loyola Marymount leaping out to a 5-0 lead, but neither side could take a demanding jump forward. They kept it within a couple of scores with defense and missed shots by both teams. It wasn't an especially well played half as both teams could not make some open shots and both had some sloppy play. Nothing of note really happened as both teams just pretty stayed side by side, unable to breakaway until they walked into the locker rooms with the Beavs kept a narrow lead at 30-29 after twenty minutes of play.
