CORVALLIS - The Oregon State men's basketball team is safe, but witnessed the "horrific carnage" caused by the Thursday terror attack in Barcelona that left at least 12 people dead and dozens more injured.

No decision had been made as of Thursday afternoon on whether to cut the 13-day trip short in the wake of the attack, OSU athletic director Scott Barnes said while addressing reporters after football practice at Reser Stadium.

Barnes said he had been in constant contact with coach Wayne Tinkle and a collective decision that prioritized safety would come in the near future.

"Unfortunately, our student-athletes were exposed to horrific carnage that will be lasting memories to them," Barnes said.

A visibly shaken Tinkle appeared in a 78-second video from the team hotel that published on Twitter before Barnes addressed the media.

"Literally looking out our window, we won't show you pictures, but some horrific sights," Tinkle said. "Several fatalities within eyesight of our hotel room."

According to Barnes, the Beavers were in the lobby of their Barcelona hotel at the time of the attack. OSU was on the way to a pregame dinner at the hotel when a white van jumped onto the nearby sidewalk and swerved to intentionally hit pedestrians.

Assistant coach Gregg Gottlieb wrote in a Facebook post that the attack happened "right in front of us" as the team sat down for its pregame meal.

Strength and conditioning coach Jeff Macy wrote on Twitter that he and his wife, Barb, were separated by three blocks at the time of the attack and that she was kept safe by a local store owner. He said that due to a lockdown around the hotel, she would stay with the store owner's family for the night.

The Associated Press reported the attack "left victims sprawled out in the street, spattered with blood or crippled by broken limbs."

Barnes, whose son, Isaac, is a walk-on, said that the coaches gathered the team together after the incident before letting them return to their respective rooms.

"The coaches checked on them continuously and then brought them together again," Barnes said. "They're in good shape right now, given the circumstances. ... They feel like talking amongst each other is therapy within this regard."

The Beavers left Monday for Barcelona as part of a European trip to feature games against professional opponents, as well as sightseeing throughout the country. The trips are commonplace in the college basketball landscape and Arizona, Clemson, Grand Canyon and Tulane were also in Spain at the time of the attack.

Arizona on Thursday announced it planned to cancel the third and fourth games of its trip and return home.

OSU scheduled five games from Thursday through Friday, Aug. 25. The attack occurred less than five hours before the team was scheduled to face Mataro Parc Boet. The game was cancelled after the attack.

The original itinerary called for the Beavers to leave Barcelona on Friday and play a game Saturday against Combinado Valenciano.

Forty-one people made the team trip, which included players, coaches, basketball staff members, athletic department staff and family members.

Barnes said he felt "a bit of helplessness" as he heard about the attack and that the fate of future international trips by teams at the school would be determined later.

"Everything is good with our guys," Tinkle said in the video. "Obviously going to be a tough thing to deal with here moving forward. But thank God we're all safe and accounted for here at the hotel."
