The women’s basketball team is facing higher expectations this year after a surprising Elite Eight run last year in the NCAA Tournament. The hype includes a #11 preseason ranking for the team that returns all five starters and it’s top 7 scorers from last year.

Jason Quick writes that a lot of teams messed up in the NBA draft by passing on Dillon Brooks after Brooks (unfortunately) was key late in a Memphis victory over Portland.

Oregon volleyball swept the ASU Sun Devils in Tempe last night. Oregon improved to 9-6 in conference while ASU remained winless in conference play. Volleyball is at Arizona on Sunday to continue the road trip.

Golf crootin! Oregon announced a signing class of three for the men’s golf team this year. Included are two international players and the top ranked golfer in the state of Oregon this year.
