November 02, 2025 | Women's Basketball
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Oregon State dominated from start to finish, beating Alaska-Fairbanks 104-27 in Sunday night's exhibition game.
A team effort saw 12 players in the scoring column with 31 assists on 39 baskets. Defensively, OSU held the Nanooks to 17.7 percent shooting (11-of-62) and recorded 21 steals.
Kennedie Shuler keyed the balanced offense and suffocating defense. The junior dished nine assists and added five steals. Tiara Bolden led all scorers with 22 points, adding six rebounds and four steals for a strong all-around effort.
Ally Schimel resumed her role as on-court glue, finishing with nine points and a team-high plus-minus of +53.
The game marked the Gill Coliseum debut for McKenzie Shivers, who missed 2024-25 due to a knee injury. Shivers entered in the second quarter and wasted little time making an impression, draining a three from the wing to the delight of the home crowd.
Shivers was one of seven Beavs to make a first impression on Beaver Nation. Among them, Jenna Villa scored 17 points with six assists and freshman Lara Alonso-Basurto scored 20 points with seven rebounds. Katelyn Field joined the party with a trio of three-pointers, finishing with nine points.
NEXT UP:
The Beavers officially open the season at home on November 7 against Corban. Tip is slated for 3 p.m. on ESPN+.
