Beavers Win! BEAVERS WIN!!!!! (Celebration Open Thread)

In a game that will be remembered for years to come, the Oregon State Beavers defeated the USC Trojans, in the sport of men's basketball, by the score of 62-58.

The Beavers are now 1-1 in Pac-10 play.

Roeland Schaftenaar had the game of his Oregon State career, scoring 18 points and collecting seven rebounds. He played 40 of 45 minutes. Also... 6 assists, three steals, one turnover.

Calvin Haynes scored 16 points... Omari Johnson scored 11.

The Beavers achieved their long awaited Pac-10 victory, their first win in 21 conference games. The last time the Beavers tasted victory in the Pac-10 was February 22, 2007. 

I'll get a more formal game write-up later, but for now, let's enjoy this one!

GO BEAVERS!

The fans were chanting “just – like – foot – ball”??? THAT IS AWESOME. USC athletes have to be like, “WTF?”

"When Bellotti attempted to shake the hand of Oklahoma State quarterback Zac Robinson after the game, Robinson offered his left hand. His right was swollen and battered from the Ducks' defense."

Who knows

I could be just smoking the first win stuff right now, but as I mentioned in the game thread this game looked VERY solid for the Beavs. It didn’t look like a fluke at all, it looked like a team confident in their play and played solid and aggressively. The OT play was excellent and like the game they didn’t let the SC lead in OT or the game get them out of the game plan (for the most part). They kept with it.

I think we will see some good games out of this team.

Agree

I think we can play with most teams in the Pac-10. Plus if we get out to a great start like we did it puts us in position to win games which we did this afternoon.

Definitely

Building a 12-2 lead early was huge. Even though we fell behind by 15 in the second half, I’d rather jump out to an early lead and fight back late.

Wow

It never looked like the Beavers got rattled down the stretch. Even in crunch time, they were determined to be patient and get good shots.

Fantastic win.

Great win, I’ll put something more formal up later tonight.

Thanks for stopping by, everyone.

Hey guys, just got back from Gill

GREAT WIN for the Beavs. Coming back from 15 down was awesome. Look for some thoughts (not statistical) later on in the evening

I support Takimoto in his effort to support Roger Kieschnick in his quest to becoming the best Kieschnick ever to play professional baseball.
