10 Straight: Beavs Beat Texas Tech Behind Five in Double Figures
December 21, 2023 | Women's Basketball
MAKAWAO, Hawai'i – Oregon State overpowered Texas Tech in the first half and didn't let up in a 77-65  win over Texas Tech in a matchup of two teams receiving votes in the latest Associated Press poll.
Â
Talia von Oelhoffen closed out another stellar weekend on Maui with 20 points and 11 assists. It was the Beavers first points-assists double-double since Destiny Slocum did so in 2020 and the first with 20 points since Leilani Estevan in 2004.
Â
Raegan Beers notched yet another double-double, the 22nd in her young career, with 15 points and 12 rebounds. The sophomore made 6-of-8 from the floor. Kelsey Rees nearly gave the Beavers a third double-double for the first time since 1999, finishing a rebound shy with 12 points and nine boards.
Â
Timea Gardiner also reached double-figures with 10 points on an efficient day from the floor. She made 3-of-4 from three while also pulling down five rebounds.
Â
Oregon State got off to a blazing start, leading 18-6 while making 4-of-7 three-pointers. Four Beavs made at least one and every member of the starting five had at least three points when Texas Tech attempted to stop the run with a timeout.
Â
Donovyn Hunter keyed the early run, hitting a three and providing a steady presence at the point guard spot. The freshman finished the game with a career-high 15 points on 3-of-5 shooting from three.
Â
Texas Tech responded with an 8-0 run to open the second quarter, but the rest of the period was all Beavers. A 10-0 OSU run followed with the Beavers getting all 10 from Beers and von Oelhoffen. Oregon State led 43-22 at the break.
Â
Oregon State led by as many as 28 before the Red Raiders got closer to being back in the contest at the end of the game.
Â
OSU shot 51.9 percent from the field and 44 percent from downtown. The Beavers outrebounded the Lady Raiders 39-30.
Â
The Beavs take a week off for the holidays before taking on Morgan State on Thursday, December 28. It's the opening game of a men's/women's doubleheader with tip slated for 2 p.m.
