Differential cross sections and analyzing powers were measured for the ${}_{}{}^{18}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{O}$(p→,t${)}^{16}$O reaction at 90 MeV. The angular distributions for six triton groups are compared with calculations performed in the zero-range and finite-range distorted wave Born approximation. The present results were augmented by data available in the literature in order to study the excitation function σ($T_p$) for the $J^{\pi }$${=2\mathrm{}}^{+}$ state at $E_x$=9.85 MeV over the range of $T_p$=20 to 90 MeV in comparison with distorted wave Born approximation calculations.
