Women’s basketball is getting ready to host the Arizona schools this weekend beginning with #19 ASU on Friday. Oregon is offering free tickets to the game for any furloughed federal workers.

The Knight Library is displaying an exhibit on the history of the University of Oregon track and field teams. The exhibit goes back to the days before Bill Hayward and includes the letter of recommendation that helped lead to Hayward’s hire.

Freshman Louis King has begun to show why he was a highly ranked recruit. King is ranked fifth in Pac 12 scoring and second in rebounding through the first two weeks of conference play.
