In what can only be described as an immaculate match, Oregon Beavers get past Colorado Buffaloes with a close 68-62 points in the bag. Freshman guard Donovyn Hunter, who still only averages 5.3 points per game, broke out of her cocoon. She made a career-high  16 points. She was joined by the junior guard Talia von Oelhoffen, who scored 16 points as well. The two also controlled the offensive front incredibly well for the team with 4 assists each. The Beavers, moreover, showed a great defensive front, halting the Buffaloes at 20 points in both the second and third quarters.

On the other side, in all fairness, the Buffaloes also put up a good performance throughout the game. Specifically, their senior guard Jaylyn Sherrod scored a decent 19 points in the game. She bagged 5 rebounds and 2 assists for the team. Their score leader, Aaronette Vonleh, brought 12 points home. To add to this, Quaya Miller showed an incredible defense with 8 rebounds in the game. However, their performance still could not hold up to the Beavers and their emphatic offense and defense.
