The #13 Oregon Ducks Mens Basketball team used a 21-0 first half burst to run away from California, defeating the Golden Bears 90-56 Thursday night at Matthew Knight Arena. In the process, Oregon moved into a tie with UCLA atop the Pac-12 standings.
Thursday’s win means that the Ducks (23-7, 12-5) will be playing for the Pac-12 regular season title and the No. 1 overall seed to next week’s Pac-12 Tournament when Oregon hosts Stanford on senior night Saturday at 8 p.m.
Regardless the outcome on Saturday, the Ducks have secured no worse than the No. 2 seed to the league’s annual showcase in Las Vegas.
Payton Pritchard scored 20 points and had nine assists to lead the Ducks. Anthony Mathis added 17 on 5-of-6 shooting from three-point range. Will Richardson and Addison Patterson each scored 13 points, while Shakur Juiston had 10.
With a third straight Pac-12 regular season title in hand,
the No. 3 ranked Oregon Women’s Basketball team will look to cut down more nets
this weekend at the Pac-12 Tournament in Las Vegas.
Riding a 16-game win streak into the postseason,
Oregon (28-2, 17-1) is seeking its second-ever conference tournament
championship after winning in 2017-18.
The Ducks will get a bye in the opening round as the No. 1 seed and will face the winner of Thursday’s 8/9 game between Utah and Washington in the quarterfinals on Friday at 2 p.m. PT in Mandalay Bay Events Center (Pac-12 Network).
The Mazama Vikings play at Valley Catholic in Girls playoff action in the OSAA 4A basketball playoffs tonight in Beaverton.

Tech now sitting at No. 7 and SOU at No. 8. The Owls (26-7) will start play in
the Duer Bracket as the No.2 Seed and will have its first round contest on
Thursday, March 12th, at 7:15 pm Pacific (9:15 pm CST) in the final game of the
