WBB: Game 2 of Civil War claimed by Ducks, win 75-63.

Falling short in overtime just two days earlier for their 14th straight loss to rivals Oregon State, the Ducks finally brushed the Beavers off their back with a convincing 75-63 victory on Sunday night. Both teams struggled to find their legs in the first quarter of the 100th Civil War, but an explosive 28-11 second quarter for Oregon gave them a 40-18 halftime advantage. Though Oregon State would continue to fight, Oregon would close out their rivals for the victory thanks to 21 points from freshman Satou Sabally. Mallory McGwire impressed in her second straight start, tallying 14 points and 6 rebounds as the Ducks dominated down low, holding a 32-8 margin of points in the paint.
