Mouhamed Gueye recorded 18 points and 12 rebounds to lead Washington State to a 68-65 victory over Oregon on Sunday in Pac-12 play in Pullman, Wash.

TJ Bamba and Justin Powell scored 11 points apiece as the Cougars (13-15, 8-9 Pac-12) won their third straight game. Andrej Jakimovsky had 10 points as Washington State split the regular-season series with the Ducks.

Keeshawn Barthelemy scored 15 of his 17 points in the second half for Oregon (15-13, 9-8), which dropped its third consecutive contest. Jermaine Couisnard scored 12 points and N'Faly Dante had 10 points and 11 rebounds for the Ducks.

Couisnard's 3-point attempt with 1.5 seconds left bounced off the rim as Oregon's NCAA Tournament aspirations took another hit.

The Ducks shot 49.1 percent from the field, including 6 of 18 from 3-point range. Oregon had a 38-29 rebounding edge but committed 12 turnovers to Washington State's six.

The Cougars made 42.9 percent of their attempts and hit 9 of 23 from behind the arc.

Baskets by Gueye and Bamba gave Washington State a 66-62 lead with 1:30 remaining. Barthelemy drained a 3-pointer 10 seconds later to bring the Ducks within one before Powell drove for a layup to give the Cougars a 68-65 edge with 23.9 seconds remaining.

The Ducks didn't get the ball to Barthelemy (6 of 6 in the second half) for the final shot and Couisnard's trey from the left wing was short.

Oregon led by four early in the second half before DJ Rodman drained two 3-pointers and Powell made one during a 13-4 run to give the Cougars a 42-37 lead with 14:48 remaining.

Jakimovsky later scored five points during a 7-0 run as Washington State took a 53-43 advantage with 9:27 left.

Oregon quickly got back into the game as Barthelemy made three baskets during a 7-0 push to cut the Cougars' lead to 53-50 with eight minutes remaining.

The Ducks moved within 56-55 on a basket by Rivaldo Soares before Rodman buried a 3-pointer with six minutes remaining. But Barthelemy and Dante followed with hoops as Oregon knotted the score at 59, and Barthelemy split two free throws with 4:16 left to give the Ducks a one-point edge.

Powell buried a 3-pointer to give the Cougars a 62-60 lead with 3:41 left before Soares scored a tying dunk 15 seconds later.

Washington State was just 10-of-34 shooting (29.4 percent) in the first half and trailed 30-27 at halftime. Oregon shot 46.2 percent (12-of-26) over the first 20 minutes.
