Eugene, OR<\/em> – The Oregon Ducks<\/strong>, looking to extend their winning streak to six games, took on an Indiana<\/strong> squad looking to cement an NCAA Tournament bid with a win. The game was close throughout until Oregon scored the last ten points of the game to come away with aa 73-64 win. Jackson Shelstad<\/strong> made a long three-pointer at the end of the shot clock to give Oregon a late 66-64 lead and the Ducks ran away from there. Shelstad led Oregon with 17 points while Nate Bittle<\/strong> added 14 points (8-of-8 FT\u2019s), seven rebounds, six assists and four blocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In quite a few games this year the Ducks have gotten off to a poor start. In their last game against USC, the Trojans took an early 15-4 lead. Tonight, Oregon was crisp on offense from the start, making over 50% of the field goal attempts and half their three-point attempts after the first 12 minutes of play. They kept a small lead through most of the first half, leading 25-19 at the under-12 time out. Indiana helped by two three-pointers from Kanaan Carlyle<\/strong>, then went on a 13-2 run to take a 32-30 lead. The Ducks came right back and took the lead on a three-pointer from Kwame Evans Jr.<\/strong>  Oregon went into halftime with a 35-32 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Evans Jr.<\/strong> played the best for Oregon in the half, finishing with eight points (2-of-3 3\u2019s) and four rebounds in ten minutes of action. Bittle also scored eight for the Ducks. Oregon cooled off after a solid shooting start, making only two of their last ten three-point attempts to finish the half at 5-of-16. Indiana shot only 3-of-10 from deep and gave up some points at the free throw line, hitting only 1-of-5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indiana<\/strong> came out hot in the second half converting on their first four of five 3\u2019s to take a 50-47 lead. The Hoosiers\u2019 three-point shooting and offensive rebounding helped them retain a small lead at 59-57 at the under-8 time out. At that point the Ducks were 0-of-6 on 3\u2019s in the half. The teams were tied at 61 at the under-4 time out with Oregon 0-of-8 from deep at that point. A three-pointer from Trey Galloway gave Indiana a 64-63 lead with 1:57 remaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shelstad<\/strong> then hit their first three-pointer of the half, a 30-footer at the end of the shot clock to give the Ducks a two-point lead. Bittle<\/strong> then came up with a steal, was fouled, and made both free throws to give Oregon a 68-64 lead. Oregon kept Indiana scoreless for the rest of the contest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ducks had a +7 rebounding edge and won despite shooting only 6-of-25 from deep. Trey Galloway<\/strong> led the Hoosiers with 16 points. Indiana shot 9-of-25 from deep, 6-of-15 in the second half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oregon <\/strong>(21-8, 11-8) will finish their regular season on the road against Washington on Sunday at Noon local time. Indiana (18-12, 9-10) will finish their regular season at home against Ohio State, an important game in deciding whether they will get an NCAA Tournament berth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
