Oregon women's basketball: one game postponed, another rescheduled
Oregon's game at Washington State, initially scheduled for Jan. 23, has been postponed due to COVID protocols within the Washington State women’s basketball program.
The two schools and the Pac-12 Conference will work to reschedule the game, and the new date will be announced when and if it is finalized.
The Ducks are still set to play at Washington on Friday, Jan. 21, at 7 p.m. on the Pac-12 Network.
This is the fifth game for Oregon that has been either canceled or postponed this season. The Ducks were scheduled to play at Northwestern Dec. 21 before the game was canceled. Oregon also had games against Utah (Dec. 31), Colorado (Jan. 2), and Arizona State (Jan. 13) postponed due to COVID protocols.
The Ducks game against Utah has been rescheduled for Jan. 26 at 11 a.m. The games against Colorado and Arizona State have yet to be rescheduled.
Tickets and parking purchased for the game on the original date will be valid.
The game will be televised on the Pac-12 Network.
Oregon is coming off a weekend where it defeated two top 10 teams at home. The Ducks first squeaked past No. 7 Arizona in overtime before a dominating victory over No. 9 Connecticut on Monday.
It remains to be seen if Oregon's game against Colorado and Arizona State will be made up. The Ducks were scheduled to play the Buffaloes Jan. 2 and the Sun Devils Jan. 13 before COVID-19 protocols postponed the matchups.
