Idaho played host to the Oregon State Beavers winning
74-67 and losing 81-53. Simmons sharp shooting at the
foul strip, McEwen's constant hitting of hooks and jump
shots along with Damiano's scoring spree proved too much
for the Beavers and Dave Gambee, who scored 32 points.
Simmons led Vandal scorers with 18 points, followed by
McEwen with 16, then Damiano with 12.
The second game was entirely different. Gambee again
led the Beavers with 28 points but the stone-cold Vandals
couldn't do a thing to stop Gambee or break the
Beavers' defense. Trying man to man and zone defense
they still couldn't stop Gambee. Putting two men on him
wouldn't even help. Coleman led Vandal scorers with his
best effort for the year with 15 points.
Jorgenson moves in to check a Beaver from shooting.
The Vandals traveled to Eugene to
split with the Ducks. W inning the
first game by taking the advantage of
Oregon's inaccurate foul shooting, the
Vandals won 64-46. The Vandals then
dropped the second game by a close
50-48 score. Fine rebounding and their
ability to hit from the free throw
line gave the Vandals an early lead
in the opening game. \Vilson saved
the game for the Vandals in the second
half by scoring 16 points and totaling
20 for the whole game.
The second game was a defensive
game with both teams taking few shots
and missin g. Second string center
Prestel led Vandal scorers with 12
points.
