Jillian Alleyne is again one of the key reasons for success this season and recently crossed the four-hundred point mark on the season. She also has three-hundred fifty six rebounds on the year. This team is right on the cusp of making a post season run and wins this weekend could go a long way in helping Head Coach Kelly Graves and the Ducks get there.
Oregon can get some redemption over the Arizona schools after losing away in late January. Arizona is up first Friday night. When they last met Oregon suffered an overtime loss 81-78. There was a span in the game where Oregon did not score for five minutes. It is important for this team to get off to a solid start and Alleyne to do what she does best, get the ball to her teammates.
