Chasson Randle lifts Stanford past Washington in OT

STANFORD, Calif. – Rosco Allen hit a key 3-pointer in overtime after missing all six of his free throws in regulation, Chasson Randle’s driving layup with 2.2 seconds left sent the game into overtime, and Stanford spoiled No. 21 Washington’s Bay Area trip with a 68-60 victory Sunday night.

Robert Upshaw missed a pair of free throws for Washington (11-3, 0-2 Pac-12) with 40.2 seconds remaining in OT and the Huskies failed to score a field goal in the extra 5 minutes after a pair of 28-point halves by each team.

Anthony Brown made one of two free throws with 39 seconds to go on the way to 16 points and Nigel Williams-Goss immediately double-dribbled on the other end.

Randle made another layup with 9 seconds left and wound up with 24 points and became the school’s career leader in 3-pointers.

Stanford (10-3, 2-0) won its fourth straight and held off another ranked team in overtime after a 74-71 win at then-No. 9 Texas on Dec. 23.

Williams-Goss missed the front end of a one-and-one with 13.4 seconds left in regulation, giving Randle and Stanford another chance. Washington, which likely just played itself out of the Top 25 poll, went 14 of 19 from the line. The Huskies lost their third straight following an 11-0 start.

Randle tied it on his record-setting 3-pointer with 8:49 remaining and scored seven straight points starting with that shot to keep the Cardinal alive. But they then missed 9 of 11 shots the rest of the way.

Andrew Andrews scored 13 points but Washington ultimately couldn’t overcome a long cold spurt spanning halftime.

Upshaw had 10 points, 10 rebounds and 4 blocked shots for the Huskies, who were swept in the Bay Area after Friday’s loss at California.
