CORVALLIS, Ore. – Journey Thompson and Jalyn Brown provided the highlights for the Sun Devil women's basketball team in a 92-55 loss at Oregon State on Sunday.
Thompson scored a career-high 16 points while ASU's leading scorer Brown had 20 points, Brown's sixth game with 20 or more points. The Sun Devils (8-9, 0-5 Pac-12) found it difficult to score the basketball as they managed to connect on just 28 percent of their shots, including only 18 percent of their attempts from beyond the arc.
Oregon State's Raegan Beers led all players in points (27) and rebounds (15). While ASU struggled from the floor, the Beavers drained 59 percent of their shots and made half of their long balls (9-18).
In addition to her success on the offensive end, Thompson tied her career high with a game-high four steals and pulled down a team-high five rebounds.
The Beavers scored 28 points in the first quarter, tying the most points in a quarter for a Sun Devil opponent this season and were never seriously threatened as they led 28-14 after one quarter and 46-23 at the half.
Brown, who started the day second in the Pac-12 in scoring in league games (21.5 ppg), led ASU with 13 points in the second half.
The Sun Devils will return to the Pacific Northwest next week for games at Washington State (Friday at 8 p.m. MST) and Washington (Sunday at 1 p.m. MST). Friday's game at WSU can be seen on Pac-12 Washington and Sunday's game at UW will be shown on Pac-12 Arizona. Both games can also be heard on KDUS AM 1060.
