OREGON MBB DEFEATS MICHIGAN, 86-83, IN AN OVERTIME THRILLER
Written by Yaniv Horenstein
EUGENE, Ore. -- Oregon men’s basketball hosted the Michigan Wolverines on Saturday afternoon at MKA. The Ducks are unfortunately battling a slew of injuries, competing without N’Faly Dante, Nate Bittle, Mookie Cook, and Jesse Zarzuela. Nonetheless, even facing a size disadvantage, the Ducks fought in a tight battle against the Wolverines and closed the game with an exciting overtime victory.
The key to the first half was crashing the offensive glass. The Ducks reeled in eight offensive rebounds, leading to 12 second chance points. Michigan followed the same pattern, grabbing 12 offensive rebounds, but fortunately for the Ducks, it only led to nine second chance points.
In typical fashion, Oregon’s first half scoring was spread out. Going into the break, Kario Oquendo led the team with eight points, and Kwame Evans Jr. and Jermaine Couisnard followed close behind with seven points each. Oregon shot the ball efficiently, ending the…

Read MoreMBB PREVIEW: Ducks look to stop two-game skid as they take on Michigan without key players
By Liam Baker
EUGENE, Ore. — After a strong start to the season which saw the Ducks (4-2) win their first four games by 10+ points, they lost both games in the Emerald Coast Classic and now take on the Michigan Wolverines (4-3) at Matthew Knight Arena. The two-game losing streak can partially be attributed to the Ducks being without two of their best players. Centers Nate Bittle and N'Faly Dante have missed the last three games. Dante has only played in the season opener and both players underwent successful surgeries this past week. Dante will be re-evaluated in a month and Bittle in two. Freshman Mookie Cook is also still out with an ankle injury. One bright spot for the Ducks over the past two games is that freshman Jackson Sheldstad made his collegiate debut. He scored eight points off the bench against Santa Clara and 10 against Alabama. For the Wolverines, they are looking to break a skid of their own. After starting 3-0 they have lost three of their past four. This…

Read MorePAC-12 Championship Preview: Oregon Set For Rematch Against Washington in Vegas
By Jonah Bruneau
Eugene, ORE – The commonly deemed “game of the year” to this point will get its part two Friday night in the city that never sleeps. The No. 5 Oregon Ducks (11-1) return to Las Vegas to compete for a PAC-12 title for the first time since 2021, when Utah ran them out of Allegiant Stadium. For No. 3 Washington (12-0), they make their first appearance in the conference championship game since 2018 when they hoisted the trophy at the end of the night after taking down Utah. Never before have the Ducks met the Huskies in the conference title game.
Chaos is almost destined to take place over the entire weekend, starting with Washington versus Oregon. The overall consensus seems to be “win and you’re in” for either team in regard to the College Football Playoff. However, the other four Power 5 title games can reshape much of what the final Playoff picture will look like.
The true X-factor this weekend is looking to be No. 8 Alabama.…

Read MoreWVB | The Ducks Fly Past the Lions Today as Oregon Sweep SE Louisiana
Written Story by Griffin Bowes
The 2nd-seeded Oregon Ducks had high hopes entering the NCAA tournament. The Ducks finished the regular season ranked sixth in the nation and second in the Pac-12, trailing only top-seeded Stanford. Meanwhile, the Southeastern Louisiana Lions also came in hot, as they entered this match with a winning streak of 22. Despite this impressive feat, the Ducks were expected to win this match rather comfortably. To the delight of the Oregon faithful, expectations were met as the Ducks won in three sets.
The Lions put forth a strong effort to open the match, as the first set was very competitive for much of its duration. Early on, the Ducks had a 4-0 scoring run, but the Lions answered with two separate 4-0 runs. However, Oregon showed great poise as they pulled away late and closed out the set with a 5-0 run, winning 25-16.
The second and third sets were less competitive, as Oregon won both 25-13. In the second, the…
