Ducks Rout Short-Handed Huskies

Associated Press

Pac-10

Orlando Williams scored 20 points and Jeff Potter 16 Thursday night as 19th-ranked Oregon rolled to its second straight home-court blowout with a 88-63 victory over Washington in Eugene, Ore.

The Ducks (7-4 Pac-10, 15-5 overall) never trailed in beating the shorthanded Huskies for the fifth straight time.

Oregon led by as many as 21 in the first half. Washington (2-10, 6-14) scored the first five points of the second half to slice the lead to 11, but didn’t get closer.

Mark Sanford, a 6-foot-8 freshman, scored a career-high 27 for Washington, 19 in the second half. Jamie Booker added 14 for the Huskies.

The Huskies, losers of 12 straight road games dating back to last season, shot just 32 percent from the field and committed 21 turnovers. Washington did manage a 49-37 rebounding advantage.
