Oregon Women's Basketball (24-2, 13-1) will travel to Northern California this weekend to face off against California and Stanford. The Ducks have been battle tested the last month having beaten 12 straight opponents including eight in the top 25, most recently defeating #7 UCLA and USC. Oregon tests their winning streak against a 10-15 Cal team on Friday, before going against the #4 Stanford Cardinal on Monday night. Kelly Graves, Jaz Shelley, and Erin Boley previewed the weekend in California.

Head Coach Kelly Graves

Oregon remains tied atop the Pac-12 standings, but a rough weekend visiting the Arizona schools could see them tumble all the way to sixth place. Oregon has just five regular season games left, and only two games left to try and improve on road woes. Oregon is the only team left standing in the Pac-12 with a perfect conference record at home (6-0) yet they have been falling short on the road with a 3-4 conference record. Head Coach Dana Altman points out that home teams have won 70% of games in the Pac-12 this season, but only a fraction of the Eugene fans will follow Oregon throughout the tournament, and the Ducks need to play more consistent away from home to make noise in the postseason.

Tonight, the number 17 Oregon Ducks took on the Utah Utes in what proved to be a lightly contested game. The Ducks fought their way to an 18 point, 80-62 victory over the Utes, who struggled to stop or slow the Ducks all night. The Utes managed to hang around for most of the night thanks to timely shooting and tough defense, but the Ducks were just too talented. 

Oregon was eventually able to put the Utes away with around 4 minutes to play, but the Utes did well to keep Oregon’s lead under 20 points for the entirety of the game. The Utes got double digit contributions from Branden Carlson, Timmy Allen and freshman point-guard Rylan Jones, who led Utah with 18 points.  

Despite the Utes impassioned effort on both ends of the floor, the Ducks seemed to have an answer for every punch Utah threw. Payton Pritchard led all scorers with 25 pts, Will Richardson contributed 18 pts, 6 rbs and 6 assists and…
