No. 18 Arizona rebounds from a home loss to defeat Oregon State
Arizona forward Ryan Anderson and Oregon State forward Olaf Schaftenaar vie for a loose ball during the second half of a game on Jan. 30.
Gabe York made six three-pointers and scored 24 points, both career highs, and No. 18 Arizona shot 56% from the field and bounced back from a rare home loss to beat Oregon State, 80-63, on Saturday night at Tucson.
Ryan Anderson added 13 points and 12 rebounds for the Wildcats (17-5, 5-4 Pac-12), who were coming off an 83-75 loss to No. 23 Oregon on Thursday night that ended Arizona’s 49-game home-court winning streak, the longest in the nation.
Tres Tinkle scored 16 for the Beavers (12-8, 3-6), who stayed with the Wildcats until the final 10 minutes. Olaf Schaftenaar added 14 points and matched his career high with four three-pointers for Oregon State, and Gary Payton III had nine points, seven rebounds and six assists.
The win was No. 300 for Coach Sean Miller, who spent five years at Xavier and is in his seventh season with the Wildcats.
at Utah 96, Stanford 74: Jakob Poeltl scored 23 points and the Utes (17-5, 6-3) stayed in the hunt for the Pac-12 title.
Poeltl caught fire in the second half and the Cardinal had no answer for the 7-foot Austrian. He scored 10 straight and 12 of Utah’s 14 points during a second-half stretch that pushed the lead to 14. Stanford never made a significant run afterward.
Kyle Kuzma scored 16 points for Utah, while Brandon Taylor finished with 15 points, seven rebounds and four assists.
Dorian Pickens and Rosco Allen led Stanford (11-9, 4-5) with 16 points apiece.
