A free throw by Carson gave Arizona State a 69-68 advantage with 1:51 left and the lead was 74-72 after Marshall made one of two free throws with 4.5 seconds to go before Bachynski finished off the best all-around effort of his career.

Bachynski scored 18 first-half points as Arizona State built a 43-23 halftime edge. His dunk gave the Sun Devils a 50-29 advantage with about 14 1/2 minutes to go prior to the start of Oregon’s comeback.
