Everything we know following Oregon’s 67-53 win over UCLA

Oregon used a big first half to defeat UCLA 67-53 in a rare non-conference contest between the Pac-12 teams.

That’s the Oregon Ducks we all expected to see.

After a lackluster performance against Oregon State just three days ago, the Ducks (17-8, 9-4) jumped on UCLA (11-10, 6-6) early and often and defeated the Bruins 67-53 in a rare non-conference game between the two Pac-12 teams.

Oregon hit five of its first seven three-point attempts and went on to lead 40-20 at halftime and cruised in the second half.

Endyia Rogers led the way 16 points and Te-Hina Paopao added 15 points, 6 rebounds, and four assists. Oregon also took control on the boards and out-rebounded UCLA 38-33. Defensively, the Ducks managed to hold Bruins leading scorer Charisma Osborne to 16 points, but she had to take 18 shots for those points.

This was just the first game of a busy week for Kelly Graves’ team as they will now host Cal on Friday and then No. 2 Stanford Sunday, Feb. 20 in what should be a near-full Matthew Knight Arena.

Everything we know following Oregon’s 83-30 smashing of WSU

Oregon turned in its most complete game of the season with an 83-30 rout over WSU.

Oregon received its wake-up call for some early morning coffee and Washington State did not.

In the noon start time, the Ducks were fully awake and ready to go as Oregon jumped on the Cougars and never let up in an 83-30 rout in the Palouse. It was the biggest margin of victory over Washington State in the series history.

The Ducks shot the light out, hitting 33-of-65 from the floor for 51 percent. Washington State was quite the opposite with the Cougars missing their first 14 shots and ending up shooting just 11-of-63 for 17.5 percent.

It’s nice to see the Ducks’ offensive abilities come back. Oregon had trouble scoring down in the desert as both Arizona schools held it to under 50 points. The Ducks had over 50 midway through the third quarter against the Cougars.

Now Oregon will prepare to face its rival Oregon State for two straight games. Friday’s contest up in Corvallis and Sunday’s in Matthew Knight Arena.

Everything we know following Oregon’s tough 55-49 loss at ASU

It was a rough and physical game, just as Arizona State wanted it, and the Sun Devils came out with the win.

What a difference five days make.

Oregon was able to control the pace up in Matthew Knight Arena this past Tuesday against Arizona State and the Ducks ended up with a 14-point win.

The exact opposite occurred today in Tempe as the Sun Devils were able to play their physical, low-scoring game and the Ducks weren’t able to handle it.

Arizona State pulled away in the fourth quarter and defeated No. 19 Oregon 55-49. The loss dropped the Ducks to 15-7 overall and 7-3 in conference play. It also ended a miserable trip to the desert where Oregon was swept.

Things don’t get any easier for Kelly Graves’ team as they will prepare for three games in the next seven days, beginning with a game at home with Washington State Feb. 9 at noon. Then the Ducks and Beavers will play back-to-back games on Friday and Sunday.

Everything we know following Oregon’s 63-48 loss to No. 8 Arizona

The winning streak had to come to an end at some point. That night was on Friday, as Oregon was completely dominated by No. 8 Arizona 63-48.

You knew that if Oregon fell behind by double-digits in this one, it was unlikely that there would be a dramatic fourth-quarter comeback.

Arizona was able to get some kind of revenge from the Ducks after Oregon’s overtime buzzer-beater win a couple of weeks ago with a 63-48 win inside the McKale Center.

Very little went right for the Ducks, who suffered their first loss since Jan. 7 to Stanford. Oregon falls to 15-6 overall and 7-2 in conference action.

Their ultimate downfall for the visitors was their inability to hold on to the ball and get a shot up. Oregon turned the ball over 21 times and managed to get just 44 shots up in the entire game. This would have been an even worse outcome if it wasn’t for Nyara Sabally’s 15 points and Endyia Rogers’ 17 points and seven rebounds. No other Duck was in double figures.

Everything we know following Oregon’s 72-58 win over Arizona State

Oregon played a solid game, and it needed to, against Arizona State to come out with a 72-58 win, their 8th straight.

It seems like Arizona State gives Oregon fits whenever the two teams meet up. It doesn’t matter who is on the roster. Even the team that had Sabrina Ionescu, Satou Sabally, and Ruthy Hebard had trouble with the Sun Devils.

Today wasn’t any different as these Ducks had to scratch and claw for everything they got. But Oregon was able to answer every potential rally from Arizona State to come out with a 72-58 victory in a game that was a make-up contest from Jan. 13.

Nyara Sabally dominated on the inside with 22 points and six rebounds with Te-Hina Paopao adding 19 points, six rebounds, and six assists.

Ironically, only Endyia Rogers with USC was the only Duck to have played ASU in a game. But they got plenty of experience today and they’ll need that experience as the two teams are scheduled to meet again in five days in Tempe.

Oregon is now 14-5 overall and 7-1 in conference action. The Ducks haven’t lost since that setback to Stanford Jan. 7.

Everything we know following Oregon’s 80-48 rout over USC

Led by Nyara Sabally, the Oregon inside game was just too much for the Trojans to handle in the easy win over USC.

Oregon knew before the season that this women’s basketball team had the chance to be special. All they had to do was to get everyone healthy at the same time.

For the last six games, Kelly Graves has been able to play a full roster and the results more than show it.

The No. 19 Ducks have won their sixth straight game with an 80-48 rout over USC. Oregon is now 14-5 overall and 6-1 in conference action.

If anyone was worried if Oregon would be a bit sluggish after playing just once in the last nine days, there was no need to be concerned.

USC, who lost by two in overtime to OSU just two days ago, was playing without center Alyssa Pili and the Ducks took advantage of their post depth and played most of the game inside the key. Nyara Sabally dominated with 23 points and seven rebounds.

Everything we know following Oregon’s 80-68 loss to No. 2 Stanford

Oregon didn’t have an answer for Stanford’s Lexie Hull, who burned the Ducks for a career-high 33 points on seven threes.

It all comes down to making shots and tonight, No. 2 Stanford found and made nearly every shot it wanted while Oregon struggled to find open shooters.

The Oregon Ducks women’s basketball team made a couple of small runs at the Cardinal, but Stanford eventually came out with an 80-68 win over Oregon. It was the Ducks’ first conference loss on the season.

Oregon didn’t have an answer for Lexie Hull, who lit up the Ducks for a career-high 33 points on 7-of-10 shooting from three-point range.

Nyara Sabally, Endyia Rogers and Te-Hina Paopao did their best to keep their team in it, and in the fourth quarter, Oregon had a couple of chances to cut the Stanford lead to five or even four, but it wasn’t to be.

Oregon lands commitment from USC transfer Endyia Rogers

Kelly Graves added more talent to the 2021-22 Ducks roster, landing a commitment from USC transfer Endyia Rogers.

It worked out very well the first time around, so the Ducks decided to go to the well once again.

USC point guard Endyia Rogers is now the Trojans former point guard as the junior-to-be has announced she is coming to Eugene to play for Kelly Graves and the Oregon women’s basketball team.

She will follow in the footsteps of Minyon Moore, who also left USC to be a Duck, but the two situations are quite different. Moore left Los Angeles as a senior transfer in hopes of playing in the NCAA tournament, which she was an integral part of Oregon’s Final Four team of 2019.

Rogers is leaving the Trojans because of a coaching change. Longtime Trojan coach Mark Trakh retired after 26 years of coaching, including nine total seasons with USC. Lindsay Gottlieb was hired as his replacement and that was when Rogers announced she was going elsewhere.

It was widely believed that the 5-foot-7 guard from Dallas was going to choose between Oregon and Arizona as her next destination.

In her time with the Trojans, ironically, she was Moore’s replacement as being their primary scorer. She averaged 14.8 points and 3.5 assists per game last season as a sophomore. As a Duck, Rogers won’t be expected to carry that kind of workload as she will be Te-Hina Paopao’s backup.

Oregon has become a popular landing spot for transfers as Graves is rivaling Dana Altman in convincing players to come to Eugene. Besides Rogers, the Ducks have signed Ahlise Hurst (New Mexico), Taylor Hosendove (Georgia State), and Chanaya Pinto (Northwest Florida State College).
