OREGON – All season long, Oregon boys basketball coach Quinn Virgil has been waiting for his team to put it all together: offensive flow, defensive pressure, winning 50-50 balls, hitting big shots.

The Hawks have been pointing to the postseason for the past month and a half, and they came out and played like it in Wednesday night's Class 2A Oregon Regional semifinal. Oregon controlled the tempo and never trailed after the first quarter, beating rival Byron 60-46 at the Blackhawk Center.

"Collectively, that's the best effort we've had all season," Virgil said. "We wanted to be playing our best basketball in the postseason, and we played very smart and very strong tonight."
