SEATTLE, Jan. 26 (UPI) -- Justin Dentmon had 24 points and six assists Thursday night as the Washington Huskies upset the seventh-ranked Oregon Ducks, 89-77.
Ryan Appleby scored 16 points, Spencer Hawes had 15 and Jon Brockman finished with 14 points and eight rebounds for the Huskies (12-7, 2-6 Pac-10), who broke a three-game losing streak.
Bryce Taylor scored 19 points and Chamberlain Oguchi had 15 for Oregon (18-2, 6-2), which had won five straight coming into the game.
Dentmon scored 15 first-half points to lead the Huskies to a 51-40 halftime advantage. The Ducks suffered from poor ball-handling in the first half, committing 15 turnovers to just four for the Huskies.
Oregon scored the first seven points of the second half, and cut the lead to 59-57 in the opening minutes of the period -- but Washington went on a 13-4 spree late in the game to take control.
