OSU Opens Conference Play On The Road
December 04, 2024 | Women's Basketball
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Oregon State hits the road for its earliest known start to conference play on Thursday when the Beavs take on Pacific.
In a game rescheduled due to a conflict with OSU's annual Maui Classic tournament, the Beavs and Tigers will face off for the sixth time overall. OSU is 5-0 in the previous five matchups, most recently playing in 2019-20.

WINNERS WIN
Scott Rueck enters Year 29 at Oregon State as one of college basketball's most proven winners. In 15 years at OSU he took a team that needed tryouts to fill a roster in his first year to three Elite Eights, five Sweet 16s and the 2016 Final Four. Prior to joining OSU, Rueck turned George Fox into a Division III power, winning the 2009 National Championship. In 2024-25, Rueck just earned his 300th win with the Beavers and 600 career victories. He would be one of 16 active coaches with 600 wins.
QUICK AS A CAT
Whether she's playing the three or the four, part of the reason Catarina Ferreira is a Beav is to attack the glass. When she pulled down seven offensive rebounds against ASU, Cat became the first Oregon State player listed at six feet or smaller to grab seven-or-more offensive boards since former Pac-12 Player of the Year Jamie Wiesner did it in 2016. The o-boards were part of a career day that included 22 points and 11 total rebounds, both career-highs for her first-ever double-double.
PRO BEAVS
Development in the Oregon State program helped several former players earn spots on pro teams all over the world. Numbers fluctuate as seasons start and end, but OSU has 10 alumni playing professionally. Notable performances include Kat Tudor earning a spot on the WBBL Team of the Year and Mikayla Pivec earning NBL1 East First-Team honors. Marie Gulich (Germany) and Ali Gibson (Puerto Rico) each represented their countries at the Olympics. Gibson was OSU's first two-time Olympian in women's basketball.
