TOP 25 ROUNDUP Wiese powers No. 8 Beavers past No. 12 ASU Sophomore guard sets career mark for 3-pointers Comment By Kyle Odegard The Assocated Press MailTribune.com By Kyle Odegard The Assocated Press Posted Feb. 14, 2015 @ 2:00 am By Kyle Odegard The Assocated Press Posted Feb. 14, 2015 @ 2:00 am » Social News CORVALLIS — Oregon State's Sydney Wiese says 3-pointers aren't just about the shot. There's plenty more to it: the play call, the movement of teammates and the screen before the attempt. They were all working Friday night for the sophomore point guard, who scored 15 points and set Oregon State's career record for 3-pointers, and the No. 8 Beavers held on to beat No. 12 Arizona State, 70-64. "People set me up well," Wiese said. "It's definitely a team record." Ruth Hamblin added 17 points, nine rebounds and six blocks, and Ali Gibson scored 14 for the Beavers (22-2, 12-1 Pac-12). Sophie Brunner had 24 points, and Katie Hempen added 13 for the Sun Devils (21-4, 10-3). Wiese set the 3-pointer record with a shot from beyond the arc with 14:04 left in the first half. She had two in the game, putting her at 180 3-pointers in her two seasons. Arizona State trailed by three late in the game with the Beavers on offense, but Hempen made a steal, then crumpled to the court, apparently with a tweaked ankle. Gabriella Hanson grabbed the loose ball and made an uncontested lay-in for the Beavers with 1:11 left to make it 66-61. The game had plenty at stake as, entering the week, Arizona State and California trailed Oregon State by a game in the Pac-12 standings. "Down the stretch in Pac-12 play is a grind, and any win we can get is a good one," Wiese said. "I think there's still room for improvement for our team." Oregon State coach Scott Rueck thought the game felt like a prize fight at times, and not just for the physical play. "Couldn't shake them, couldn't get away from them, but made the plays down the stretch," he said. The Beavers were ahead by as many as eight points early, but led 29-27 at the half as the Sun Devils made their last four shots before the break. Oregon State led by nine with 4:27 left, but Arizona State clawed back. Jamie Weisner came in leading the Beavers with 13.9 points per game, but had only eight against Arizona State. Sun Devils Coach Charli Turner Thorne credited the defense of Promise Amukamara on Weisner. "I thought it was a great game," Turner Thorne said. "Hopefully we'll get to see each other again in the Pac-12 tournament." TIP INS Oregon State: Was fourth in the nation in field-goal defense at 33.6 percent entering the week. The Sun Devils, shooting 44.6 percent on the season, shot 41.8 percent on Friday. ... The Beavers, usually clad in orange and black, wore pink uniforms for the Dam Cancer game. Arizona State: Despite the loss, the Sun Devils have won 22 of their last 27 meetings with Oregon State. ... The Sun Devils had used the same starting lineup all season, but forward Kelsey Moos missed Friday's game because of an elbow injury. Quinn Dornstauder started in her place and scored 10 points. MISSING MOOS Turner Thorne said the Sun Devils gave themselves a chance to win, but it was a shame her team wasn't at full strength against a top-10 program on the road. "I can't tell you how much difference Kelsey Moos makes. She's like the heart and soul of our team," she added. Moos won't need surgery and should return this season. WINNING SEASON Oregon State is closing in on the school record of 24 wins in a season, set last year. The women's and men's basketball teams are both undefeated at Gill Coliseum this year. YOUNG GUN Wiese set the Beavers career mark in 3-pointers in just her 59th game. She passed Felicia Ragland, who had 178 makes from beyond the arc in 118 career games. UP NEXT Oregon State: hosts Arizona on Sunday. Arizona State: travels to Oregon on Sunday. Men No. 7 ARIZONA 86, WASHINGTON 62: At Seattle, Stanley Johnson scored 20 points to lead five Arizona players in double figures, and the Wildcats rebounded from last weekend's upset loss. Coming off a stunning setback to rival Arizona State, the Wildcats (21-3, 9-2 Pac-12) used hot shooting and a huge first-half run to pull away from the undermanned Huskies. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson added 17 points, Gabe York scored 13 off the bench and T.J. McConnell orchestrated it all with 10 points and 10 assists, his first double-double of the season. Washington (14-10, 3-9) lost its sixth straight game, the longest losing streak of Lorenzo Romar's tenure as the Huskies' head coach. Washington's last win came Jan. 22 at Colorado, before center Robert Upshaw was dismissed from the team for a violation of team rules. Andrew Andrews led the Huskies with 18 points and 11 rebounds, and Shawn Kemp Jr. added 13 as Washington's 11-0 start to the season became even more of a fleeting memory. The Wildcats went on a 21-2 run midway through the first half, turning a 10-9 lead into a 20-point advantage. Arizona took advantage of Washington's limited front court size and shot 60 percent for most of the half. Whether it was Hollis-Jefferson, Johnson or McConnell, the Wildcats had their way with nearly everything they ran on the offensive end.
