SMU Mustangs at Oregon Ducks
· NCAA Men's BasketballNo. 13 Oregon makes half of shots for 86-63 win over SMU
Will Richardson and Jacob Young each scored 18 points as the Ducks (2-0) shot 51.6% from the field, including 9 for 20 on 3-pointers.
“I think that’s the advantage of having experienced guards getting everyone in the right spot,” Oregon coach Dana Altman said. “Our vets did a really nice job and their energy level was good. We started the game and popped them pretty good early.”
Junior college transfer Rivaldo Soares had 10 points and a team-high seven rebounds — Oregon had a 39-27 advantage on the boards.
“We have a lot of good guys on this team, nobody is selfish,” Soares said. "Coach has an equal opportunity offense, everyone gets a chance to display their skills. … I am definitely confident in our team right now. We have a lot to work on, nobody is perfect, but it is only Nov. 12 and there is a lot of basketball left so we have a lot of opportunities to get a lot better.”
Quincy Guerrier had nine points and six rebounds for the Ducks, while Franck Kepnang had seven points and six rebounds.
Emmanuel Bandoumel scored 14 points to pace the Mustangs (1-1), who shot 37.7% from the field.
The Ducks shot 63.3% from the field in the first half to take a 50-35 lead at the break. Oregon scored the first eight points of the second half to pull ahead 58-35.
