The girls game saw Red Bluff as the aggressors with Corning trying to pounce back on the counterattack. The difference in the scoreline was an odd goal in the 13th minute. Kk Gibson got behind the Corning defense from a Lilly Taylor pass. Gibson was near the end line, with no place to go when she attempted a back heel that deflected off a Corning defender then off of the goalie and slipped over the line. Corning's best chance at an equalizer came in the 60th minute following a corner kick. Red Bluff goalie Chey- enne Houghtby came out to play the ball, but missed. The ball fell perfectly for Corning's Tiffany Rodri- guez to hammer it home, but a diving Houghtby re- turned just in time to make the save. Red Bluff missed a late penalty kick that kept the game's drama for the entire 80 minutes. The Lady Spartans im- proved to 9-1. Corning dropped to 4-4-3. Soccer FROM PAGE 1 of other things that could bring me back. It's just not specifically this loss." Despite the loss, the soft- spoken, lead-by-example team leader had a stellar season. In addition to the Heis- man, Mariota was named AP Player of the Year and the Pac-12's offensive player of the year and a slew of other awards. He set conference re- cords for most touchdowns in a single season with 58. He had 42 via pass, 15 on the run and a touchdown catch. He has also set the conference mark for ca- reer touchdowns with 134. He has also thrown at least one touchdown pass in all 41 games he has started in his career, the second-lon- gest streak in NCAA his- tory behind Marshall's Ra- keem Cato (46). And he's one of four quarterbacks in FBS history to pass for more than 10,000 yards and run for more than 2,000 in his career. Not that any of that mat- tered much to Mariota on this night. "My main focus was to be a great teammate. That's all I hoped to accom- plish," he said. "I don't care about legacies." Allseasonhisbold moves on the field belied his shy demeanor off it. Against Wyoming he flipped into the end zone for a touch- down, and against Ari- zona he caught a touch- down pass from running back Royce Freeman. "The impact he's had on the field is extremely signif- icant," Oregon coach Mark Helfrich said. "Off the field, probably even bigger." Senior center Hroniss Grasu said he'll miss his good friend. Last season both Grasu and Mariota decided they'd return to the Ducks for another year. "He's just an unbeliev- able leader. Unbelievable guy. Unbelievable per- son," Grasu said. "Any- one can learn from that guy because of the way he handles everything that's thrown at him, the way he handles the success, the way he handles the atten- tion. Nothing fazes him." But Mariota faced chal- lenges against Ohio State. Oregon's receiver corps was hit earlier in the week when redshirt freshman Darren Carrington was declared ineligible for the game because of a failed NCAA drug test. Car- rington did not travel to Texas for the biggest game of the season. The team had already lost freshman receiver Devon Allen, who also runs on Oregon's track team, on the opening kick- off of the Ducks' 59-20 vic- tory over Florida State in the Rose Bowl. Junior tight end Pharaoh Brown had six touchdown catches for the Ducks this season before he sustained a season-ending knee in- jury against Utah. And be- fore the season started, ju- nior receiver Bralon Addi- son tore a ligament in his left knee. That left Oregon, which regularly uses three- and four-receiver formations, with just Dwayne Stanford, Keanon Lowe, Charles Nel- son and converted running back Byron Marshall. While Mariota found Lowe on Oregon's open- ing drive with a 7-yard touchdown pass, both Nel- son and Stanford dropped third-down passes in the first half and the Ducks trailed 21-10. He seemed to find more of a groove with his receiv- ers as the game wore on, hitting Marshall with a 70- yard scoring pass to close the gap to 21-17 in the third quarter. Oregon got closer with Aiden Schneider's 23- yard field goal. Ezekiel Elliott answered the threat with a pair of rushing touchdown to put Ohio State up 35-20 and Oregon couldn't catch up. "It's tough. It happens. It's a part of football," Mar- iota said about the injuries. "But I thought that the guys who played stepped up and made plays." Mariota found ways all season to overcome inju- ries. Oregon's best offen- sive lineman, tackle Ty- ler Johnstone, injured his knee before the season started and was done for the year. Fellow O-linemen Andre Yruretagoyena and Jake Fisher also missed games and running back Thomas Tyner was ham- pered by shoulder and an- kle issues. With the exception of the lone loss this season to Ari- zona, the Ducks kept win- ning thanks to the dual- threat quarterback's savvy and elusiveness. But ultimately it wasn't enough against the big- ger and stronger Buck- eyes. Mariota finished with 333 yards passing and two touchdowns and his final attempt of the game was an interception when the game was out of reach. "This is a family. I'm truly grateful for all of them. And everything that we've accomplished this season, it says a lot about these guys," Mariota said. "I feel truly blessed." Oregon has never won a national championship. The Ducks' last appear- ance in the title game was following the 2010 season, when Mariota was a senior at St. Louis High School in Honolulu. Oregon fell to Auburn 22-19. Mariota FROM PAGE 1 San Jose has struggled to score at times during its funk, scoring two or fewer goals five times. The return of Joe Thornton after four- game absence during to a shoulder injury did little to spark the Sharks against the New York Rangers on Saturday, leading to a 2-1 loss. Arizona figured to be a nice remedy for San Jose. Despite being built upon defense, the Coyotes have struggled in their own end all season, entering Tues- day's game 28th in goals- against in the NHL, allow- ing 3.31 per game. Arizona had blowup games twice in the last three games, al- lowing 11 goals in a pair of losses wrapped around a 4-1 win over Winnipeg. The Sharks had some good scoring chances in the first period, but didn't score. The Coyotes also gener- ated some good opportu- nities and did score late, when Boedker faked a shot then beat Niemi with a slap shot for his fourth goal in three games. Once the second period revved up, so did San Jo- se's offense. Pavelski tied it 30 sec- onds into the period on a power play, a wrister from the right faceoff dot that Dubnyk had no chance of seeing through traffic in front of the crease. Hertl put San Jose up 63 seconds after that, redi- recting a pass from Brent Burns just past Dubnyk's stick side. Doan tied it midway through, punching in his 10th of the season from just outside the crease after a pass by Antoine Vermette hit a skated and bounced toward the net. San Jose appeared to take the lead back in the closing seconds, but Dub- nyk knocked the goal off its moorings with his skate and the goal was disal- lowed. The Sharks did get the lead in the third period, when Dillon sent a shot that caromed off the skate of Coyotes defenseman Zbynek Michalek and went between Dubnyk's pads. Niemi closed it out, turning away everything the Coyotes threw at him. NOTES: Coyotes D Ol- iver Ekman-Larsson, named an NHL All-Star last the weekend, played in his 300th career game. ... Sharks C Andrew Des- jardins did not play so he could be with his wife, Mandy, who is pregnant with their first child. ... Coyotes C Martin Hanzal missed his fourth straight game with an upper-body injury. ... Dillon's goal was his first since last Feb. 27 against Carolina. Sharks FROM PAGE 1 After not leading the en- tire second quarter, Golden State broke the game wide open with hot shooting from the perimeter dur- ing the third quarter. The Warriors made five straight 3-pointers over the first 4 ½ minutes of the period to take control. Curry started the on- slaught with a pair of 3-pointers sandwiching a driving jumper over four possessions. By the time Barnes finished off the spurt with his own basket from behind the arc, the Warriors held a 76-63 lead. Utah cut the deficit to six on a pair of baskets from Trey Burke and free throws from Hayward and Gobert. No comeback truly mate- rialized as Golden State stayed hot from outside. Curry drained a long jumper to start a 12-2 run that gave the Warriors an 88-72 lead with 2:52 left in the quarter. Golden State made its eighth 3-pointer of the quarter when Mar- reese Speights beat the buzzer to give the Warriors a 97-80 lead. The Jazz trailed by dou- ble digits throughout the fourth quarter. Golden State shot 58.5 percent (24 of 42) from the field before halftime and had 19 assists on 24 bas- kets. It didn't stop the Jazz from charging in front and staying there for much of the half before Barnes' la- yup with 24 seconds to go left things tied at 53.
