BOULDER, COLO. (AP) -- Laura Stanulis split a pair of free throws in the closing minutes and that was all Oregon needed to break a tie game in its 64-62 win over Colorado on Thursday night.
Tied at 62-all with 1:33 remaining, Stanulis hit the front of a back-to-back free throw situation and Oregon (15-14, 7-10) forced a missed shot and a turnover by Colorado (16-12, 5-12) to ensure the win. The Buffaloes erased a 58-55 deficit with 3:34 remaining to tie the game on a 3-pointer by Chucky Jeffery, who led all scorers with 19 points.
Colorado did not trail in the first half and led at halftime 30-28, leading 35-30 just under three minutes into the second half.
The Ducks sparked an 8-0 run to grab the 38-35 advantage with 15:17 left and pushed it to 48-41 at the 8:57 mark.
Amanda Johnson and Deanna Weaver scored 11 points apiece for Oregon.
