The Portland Timbers (0-0-2) hosted the Chicago Fire (0-1-1) at Providence Park in Portland, Ore., at noon on Saturday, March 16, 2014. Last week, Timbers’ new forward Gastón Fernández scored on a header off a corner kick that tied Portland 1-1 with the Philadelphia Union. The Chicago Fire were able to score a goal in the 19th minute via a penalty kick by Jeff Larentowicz that put the Fire up 1-0 over the Timbers. The Timbers opened in the second half with many chances to score the equalizer but none went in. On a counter in the 56th minute, Timbers’ forward Diego Valeri rolled a cross into the area giving Timbers’ forwards Gastón Fernández and Maximiliano Urruti a chance to score, neither of which could. It wasn’t until the 79th minute when the Timbers’ forward Gastón Fernández scored a point to tie up the match 1-1.

The Ducks and Bruins split the season series 1-1, with the Ducks picking up a win in their second meeting of the season, 87-83 in double overtime. The Oregon bench is averaging 29.5 points per game, while the Bruins bench accounts for 28.7 percent of the teams scoring. The Ducks perimeter shooting has played a large part in the teams current eight game winning streak, hitting 71 shots from behind the arc (8.9 per game) in the past 8 games.
After being down by two points going into the half, 35-37, the Ducks could not get things together in the second half. They only shot 35.5 percent from the field, which let the Bruins run away with the game. The Ducks end their run in the Pac-12 Tournament and will not move on the the next round of play.

Posted on 13 March 2014.
The Oregon men’s basketball team (22-8, 10-8 in Pac-12) take on the Oregon State Beavers (16-14, 8-10 in Pac-12) in their first game of the Pac-12 tournament at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on March 12. The Ducks are looking to carry the momentum over from their 64-57 win over the No.3 Arizona Wildcats and their current seven game winning streak into tonight’s game. The regular season Civil War series between the Ducks and Beavers is tied, losing on the road in Corvallis, and picking up a win at home, which started their current winning streak. Oregon guard Jason Calliste comes into tonight’s game leading the Pac-12 (3rd nationally) in three-point field goal percentage, hitting 60 three-pointers on 116 attempts for 51.7 percent on the year.

Posted on 08 March 2014.
The Oregon men’s basketball team (21-8, 9-8 in Pac-12) hosts the Arizona Wildcats (28-2, 15-2 in Pac-12) at Matthew Knight Arena on March 8. The Ducks are looking for revenge as they enter into their final regular season home game with a six-game winning streak. Last month, Oregon led a tough battle against the Arizona Wildcats in Tucson, Ariz., during their first game of the regular season. The Ducks led late into the game, but Wildcat T.J. McConnell made a late three-pointer that put the Wildcats up 62-60. The Wildcats would win that game 67-65. With a win tonight, the Ducks could all but assure itself an NCAA Tournament berth.
The Ducks will be playing in the Pac-12 Men’s Basketball Tournament at the MGM Grand Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nev., next week.

The No. 9 Oregon Ducks have their first triple-header home game series this season against the No. 5 Cal State Fullerton Titans on Friday, Feb. 28 at 6 p.m. at PK Park in Eugene, Ore. The Ducks are looking to extend their eight-game win streak tonight after an 8-2 win Tuesday night against the Portland Pilots. University of Oregon coach George Horton is a Cal State Fullerton alumni who was an assistant and head coach for the Titans from 1991-2007. The Ducks will have a lot of pressure tonight as this non-conference series can greatly impact if the team earns the right to host NCAA regional rounds in the postseason.
The Ducks will continue their triple-header against Cal State Fullerton tomorrow afternoon at 2 p.m. at PK Park in Eugene, Ore.
