Oregon Womens Basketball claims third straight Pac-12 championship in win over Washington State

By Ian Johnson

The Oregon Ducks Women’s Basketball team has taken not only the city of Eugene by storm, but rather the entire women’s basketball scene, as they were crowned Pac-12 regular season champions for the third year in a row, making it their 15th consecutive win. The triumphant trio of Ionescu, Hebard, and Sabally led the way again. Ruthy Hebard was ruthless against the Cougars, totaling 28 points and 14 rebounds. On a night where she had a small injury scare, Satou Sabally was dominant up to that point, tallying 22 points and 7 rebounds, really showing off her versatility as a player, scoring inside and out. Sabrina Ionescu had a quiet, yet productive night, finishing with 12 points and 12 assists, showing off her excellent vision and control of the offense time and time again.

From the top of the roster to the bottom, players on the Ducks made impacts and the depth of this team was shown off again tonight. All 11 active players got minutes tonight in…

BSB | Matthews walks it off in the 11th against Milwaukee

On a Friday evening match up at PK Park against the Milwaukee Panthers for the first time in program history, Gabe Matthews ended things in exciting fashion in extra innings for the 6-4 Ducks win.

Starting pitcher Cullen Kafka got off to a great start for the Ducks, before allowing three runs in the 6th inning, as he started to show signs of fatigue. He finished the game with 5.2 innings pitched, 3 earned runs, 4 strikeouts, and a walk. The bullpen did an excellent job keeping the team in the game, only giving up one run over the final 5.1 innings, and giving the team a chance to win it.

The big story of the night was obviously Gabe Matthews winning the game in the 11th with a deep bomb to right center field to win it, but true freshman center fielder Anthony Hall had a great night as well, going 2-5 with a triple and his first career home run. He also added 2 RBI and 2 runs scored to give the Ducks a massive offensive boost.

MBB | #14 Oregon wins civil war, snaps losing streak against Oregon State

Text story by Alex Roth

The 354th edition of the civil war goes the way of the Oregon Ducks as they pulled away from the Oregon State Beavers in the second half and secured a 69-54 win on Thursday night. The Ducks played well on the defensive side of the ball all night long, and were able to hold the Beavers to 54 points, which is the lowest point total the Ducks have allowed in PAC-12 play this season. Oregon also forced 15 Oregon state turnovers which lead to 15 Oregon points.

The Ducks and Beavers were locked in a close battle for much of the first half, as each team got out to a poor shooting start from the field. Ethan Williams played a major role for the Beavers in the first half, putting up 13 points to keep Oregon State in the game as the Beavers offense struggled in the first half. Oregon's first half offense was carried by Payton Pritchard and Anthony Mathis, who combined for 19 points and 5 three pointers to give the Ducks a 29-25 advantage at the…
