KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. – Oregon Tech honored six senior student athletes in style, as the No. 24-ranked Hustlin' Owls ended the regular-season on a 4-game win streak, blowing past Warner Pacific, 107-62, at Danny Miles Court.
 
Each of the 14 players in uniform scored for OIT (22-6, 18-4 CCC), who will play host to Multnomah on Tuesday night at 7 p.m. in the quarterfinals of the Cascade Conference Championships, presented by U.S. Bank.
 
Blake Jensen led the seniors with 14 points and six rebounds, Erik Fraser had 12 points and seven boards, with Keegan Shivers finishing with 10 points and eight rebounds. Kam Osborn scored eight, Jay Elmore had seven points and Jamison Guerra added six points and six assists – as the elder statesmen of the club played their final regular-season home game.
 
Tech started the game on a 20-6 run over the opening seven minutes, capped by a Jensen 3-point play. The Knights (11-16, 6-16) closed the margin to 36-31 on a long Adan Slater triple, but the rally was short-lived. OIT scored the next 16 points – Osborn converting twice in transition, Jackson Cooper grabbed a rebound and scored, Fraser scored twice on the baseline, with Dakota Reber and Elmore canning 3-pointers – ballooning Tech's lead to 52-31.
 
The second half belonged to the reserves – as no OIT starter played more than eight minutes after the break. Quincy Townsend, playing in his fifth allowed game during a redshirt year, had 10 points and six rebounds, Jared Sucher scored 10 and Sean Chris Tresvant scored a career-high eight points – as the Owls got a season-high 57 bench points.
