#19 Oregon Comes Out on Top in Battle Versus Arizona State
Written and Audio Stories by Austin Ota
The #19 Oregon Women’s Basketball team had been on fire of late, and they continued that trend as they took on Arizona State in a game that had been rescheduled due to COVID issues. Oregon, coming off of six straight wins, came into the day game looking to stay hot, while Arizona State attempted to halt the momentum and pull off an upset. What began looking like it would be a blowout for the Ducks turned into a much closer game than the fans at Matthew Knight Arena might have hoped for, but it was a well played contest on both sides.

Written Story by Justin Grossweiner
After having their 6 game winning streak snapped by the Colorado Buffaloes on Tuesday, the Oregon Ducks men's basketball team defeated the Oregon State Beavers 78-56 on Saturday night at Matthew Knight Arena. It was the first time the Ducks have swept the season series in 5 years, as Oregon dominated this game on both ends of the floor shooting 55% for the game, and holding the Beavers to 30% shooting.
Guard Jacob Young led Oregon scorers with 17 points on an efficient 6-10 shooting, and his backcourt running mate Will Richardson added 15 points in just 25 minutes. It was an incredibly efficient night for the Ducks,
However, potentially the most impactful player on both ends of the court was N'Faly Dante. He only had 9 points, but added 10 rebounds (including 5 offensive), 3 blocks, and 2 steals. Backup big Frank Kepnang also added value…

Ducks WBB Survive Scare vs Utes
Story by Ryan Milano
The Ducks limped out of Matthew Knight Arena with a 70-66 victory over Utah Wednesday afternoon.
It wasn't pretty from the jump for Oregon as the Ducks headed to halftime trailing 29-28, shooting just 1-14 from deep in the half.
The 2nd half started stronger as Oregon was able to take the lead and balloon it out to a nine-point advantage in the 3rd quarter. However, the Ducks left their foot off the pedal once again and Utah slowly clawed their way back to even with under three minutes to play.
The Utes would never take the lead back. Oregon was able to make the plays at the end to win.
For the 2nd consecutive game, Oregon went up against one of the teams at the bottom of the Pac-12 table and were taken to the wire.
The win gives Oregon five straight W's. The Ducks try to keep their win streak going on Friday as they play host to UCLA.Audio Story coming soon
