Terrence Ross helped Washington get past the loss of Abdul Gaddy.
A freshman, Ross scored a season-high 25 points to lead Washington to an 87-69 victory over Oregon in a Pac-10 matchup Thursday.
A starting guard for the Huskies, Gaddy tore his ACL in practice Tuesday and is done for the season. He was averaging 8.5 points and 3.8 assists, but Ross helped make up for the loss in production.
Ross was 11-of-18 from the field for Washington (11-3, 3-0 Pac-10), which is 3-0 in conference play for the first time in six seasons. The Huskies have also won 10 straight conference games, a feat they last pulled off from Feb. 12, 2005 through Jan. 6, 2006.
Joevan Catron scored 20 points for Oregon (7-8, 0-3). He started the second half with 11 straight points to give the Ducks a 42-41 lead. But Oregon had only one field goal in a nine-minute span in the second half, as Washington took control.
