Beavers Bounced from CBI

Ya Ya Anderson scored 23 points, including seven 3-pointers, to lead Radford past Oregon State 96-92 in the opening round of the College Basketball Invitational last night. It was the Highlanders’ first NCAA Division I postseason win.  Radford built a large early lead thanks to red-hot shooting and held off Oregon State rallies in the second half.  The Beavers ended the season 18 and 18 overall.
