The game was overshadowed by forward Tres Tinkle breaking Oregon State’s all-time scoring mark, but the Beavers refused to let Tinkle’s efforts be in vain, as they knocked Stanford in Corvallis on Thursday night, 68-65.
With the win, Oregon State moves to 16-13 on the season with a 6-11 mark in Pac-12 play, while Stanford, a team on the NCAA Tournament bubble, falls to 20-10 with a 9-8 league mark.
For the second-time this season, the Beavers snapped a four-game losing skid against the Cardinal, this time anchored by 23 points from Tres Tinkle.
