When you’re a four-sport athlete at the Division I level, people tend to take notice. First it was the AAU, which made Brenner the only collegiate finalist for the prestigious Sullivan Award — the AAU’s equivalent of the Heisman — and now it’s Sports Illustrated, which has nominated Brenner for Female College Athlete of the [...]
Despite posting one of the worst seasons in the history of Ducks basketball, freshman star Jillian Alleyne found a way to remain positive and shine on the national scene. Finishing with a team high average of 13.0 points, 11.9 rebounds and an impressive 1.3 blocks per game, Alleyne had herself one of the best freshman [...]
Despite putting up a tougher fight than most probably anticipated, Oregon endured a second-half rally from the Washington Huskies and fell 69-62 to end their season. The Ducks finished the year at 4-27. Oregon got off to a hot start, leading the Huskies by as many as 22 points in the first half. The Ducks [...]
The Ducks (4-26) will have their last shot at giving their disappointing season some redemption in the Pac-12 Tournament held in Seattle, Wash. Oregon finished last in the conference and will therefore be No. 12 against Washington, a five seed in their first game. Washington finished the year going 19-10 and leads the series against [...]
It wasn’t pretty for the Ducks tonight as they dropped their third straight game to a ranked opponent. Falling to a No. 19 Colorado team that is now riding an eight-game winning streak, the Ducks continue to compete with the upper tier teams in the Pac-12, and it is beginning to look like a three-team [...]
Things are getting worse, not better, for Oregon women’s basketball. The Ducks dropped their 24th game of the year Sunday, losing to No. 4 Stanford 74-50 at Maples Pavilion. For the Cardinal, it was the 17th straight win in what has been one of the most lopsided rivalries in Pac-12 women’s basketball. “There’s a history [...]
It has been a brutal season for Oregon women’s basketball. The Ducks (4-22 overall, 2-12 Pac-12) are currently in the middle of a six-game losing streak, losing each game by an average of 22.5 points. With just five games left — and three of those against ranked opponents — Oregon fans are hoping for any [...]

It was a historic night at Matthew Knight Arena, but it wasn’t for the home team. Washington was unconscious from the three-point line all night as they finished with 18 three-pointers (team record) and it led to their eventual blowout victory over the Ducks. The Ducks have now dropped six-straight conference games to drop even [...]
The Ducks (3-21, 1-11) are currently riding a 5-game losing streak after falling to No. 21 Colorado last Sunday, and they are desperately seeking their second win in Pac-12 play. Facing off against the Ducks tonight will be the Washington Huskies, who are currently sitting in fourth place in the conference standings. Aside from the [...]
The rough season continued on Friday when the Ducks took to Utah for the first of a two game road trip. The Ducks lost to Utah 67-47 to fall to 3-20 while Utah improved to 12-10. Despite the 2o point loss, the Ducks cut down on the negative attributes that have become the norm this [...]
Oregon women’s basketball takes to the road this weekend as they look to finish the tail end of the season strong. After a tough weekend against the conference’s top two teams, Stanford and California, Oregon will enjoy lesser opponents in Utah and Colorado. The first game comes Friday evening against Utah. Currently at 11-10, 2-8 in Pac-12 [...]
To say it was a rough outing for the Ducks would be an understatement. Not only did they lose their ninth conference game on Sunday to No. 6 Cal, to remain at the bottom of the Pac-12 standings, but they continue to get blown out in convincing fashion — this one 72-45. With no signs [...]
The Oregon women’s basketball team, a team that has struggled with injuries and inconsistent play leading to a 3-19 record, lost again Sunday afternoon. The 72-45 loss was surely one of their lowest points of the season. The 27-point margin wasn’t as bad as the 39-point loss against Oklahoma or the 44-point loss against Connecticut, [...]
The Ducks began the night knowing they were heading into the toughest two game stretch of the season with the No. 4 ranked Stanford Cardinal and the No. 6 ranked California Golden Bears marked on their schedule. The Ducks were simply overmatched tonight against the No. 4 Cardinal as the Cardinal outplayed the Ducks both [...]
Oregon’s women’s basketball team has been nothing if not consistent this year. Now, most of that consistency has been counter productive, they consistently turn the ball over too often, they consistently shoot less than 30 percent, and they consistently lose games, but there has been one stat that is consistently positive: Jillian Alleyne’s rebounding. Over 20 games into the season [...]
The Oregon women’s basketball team, now 3-17 with last weekend’s win over Washington State, will take on their toughest competition since their brutal 95-51 loss to then No. 1 Connecticut this weekend when they play No. 4 Stanford on Friday and No. 6 California on Sunday. Stanford (18-2) may be young, but what they lack in [...]
It’s hard to remember back to Oregon’s first preseason game. Or its second. In those two late October games, the Oregon women’s basketball team outscored its opponents 223-140 on its way to two dominant victories. At that point, behind the starting back court of Laura Stanulis and Lexi Petersen, the Ducks had a bright season ahead [...]
Paul Westhead’s women’s basketball team picked up their first conference win on Friday night, but they couldn’t make it two in a row Sunday afternoon in Seattle. Freshman Jillian Alleyne again led both squads in rebounding with 14, but the Huskies’ starting lineup was strong enough to overcome a rough night for Washington’s bench — [...]
After losing their first six Pac-12 games, the Oregon women’s basketball team finally got a conference win. The victory came at the expense of the Washington State Cougars, in a game of large runs and lead changes. The final score was 70-68. With the win, Oregon improved to 3-16 overall, 1-6 in conference, while WSU [...]
