It was tense, though, because Williams, Davis and Barlow were among the ones missing FTs late that would have shut the door on the Ducks. Instead, UO had multiple chances it couldn't convert. A disappointing way for Jackson to finish her final game in her hometown. She's close friends with Rogers, who said Jackson plans to move back to Seattle once she graduates this spring. Only Johnson had an impressive game for the Ducks. She was 9-for-19 from the field for 26 points and 12 boards in 29 minutes. The rest of the Ducks were 19-for-54 from the floor combined. McCann-Smith had another good night against the Ducks, making four three-pointers this go-round for 12 points. She said UO's crowding UW's posts and playing a zone helped open sight-lines to the hoop for her. "Be ready to shoot," McCann-Smith said of her mantra. Davis led all scorers with 27 points and had only three turnovers compared to the eight she had in the loss in December. My favorite stat, though, is UW outscoring UO 10-4 on fast break points. And Argens should have to buy Davis a Happy Meal for not finishing the wickedest play since the Mendiola era at Hec Ed. Davis jetted down court to beat all her defenders and whipped a no-look pass to Argens, who was waiting on the block. The senior went up and I think Holliday blocked it, but still...UW (13-9, 5-7) is now tied with Oregon (13-11, 5-7) in conference standings. The Huskies host Oregon State on Saturday. The Beavers are on a five-game win streak.

"In general, I thought our halfcourt defense wasn't good enough," McGuff said of his team allowing ASU to shoot 46.8 percent from the field. "We've got to be better than that if we're going to beat a really good Arizona State team." UW also has to be better from the FT line, shooting 6-of-15 in the second half. None seemed to hurt more than Rogers' two with 33 seconds left and the Dawgs down two points. UW still had a chance, but didn't attempt a three-pointer late as ASU made three of its final four shots from the line. Rogers finished with a game-high 20 points and 12 rebounds. Anders said he intentionally threw three different guards at Davis to slow her down, and the freshman was 4-for-13 from the field for 12 points, six boards and five miscues. But the story was all at the line. UW had 12 more attempts than ASU (9-for-12), and it should have taken advantage. "I wasn't taking my time," Rogers said of the missed FTs late, hitting the back of the rim. "Free throws win games. Coach focuses on free throws every practice and we as a team talk about free throws every practice. It is very important." The next step for UW seems to be finishing. Like against Utah or even back to the Oregon and Oregon State losses, little hiccups late are hurting the team. For ASU, it's been a quiet emergence. The Sun Devils have won their past five games, getting an offensive lift from Brandon to complement the traditional defensive strength. Brandon had 16 points, six boards, and three blocks against UW. "When you get to be a senior at this point in the season, you know your numbers are limited -- you only have seven games left in the regular season," Anders said of Brandon's mindset. "There is an urgency that comes about you and it's really great to see her step up and show what's she's capable of." But while Brandon was a force, Mann was the player hitting shots at key points in the game -- like any time UW thought it was going to regain the lead late. Mann finished with 12 points and four assists. ASU (15-5. 6-3 Pac-12) is now tied with Cal for second in the conference, the Bears losing 74-71 to No. 4 Stanford in overtime on Saturday. UW (11-8, 3-6) drops to a tie with Utah for 11th place.
