The Pac-12 Women’s Basketball Tournament got started Wednesday afternoon, and the eight seed Beavers opened up their postseason with a close fought 59-54 victory over the ninth seed Arizona State Sun Devils.
Oregon State opened up an early lead over ASU with some sharp three point shooting. Talia von Oelhoffen hit two, while Emily Codding and AJ Marotte contributed one each, to help the Beavers build an 11 point lead in the first quarter. The Sun Devils managed to cut that margin to 8, thanks to a Jaddan Simmons three pointer, before the quarter ended.
