STARTING FIVE

Oregon State dominated inside with a +25 rebound margin to eliminate Portland from the WCC tournament and move on to the conference semifinals
Lizzy Williamson was the player of the game, scoring 20 points with 16 rebounds, her best performance since November 2021 against UT-Rio Grande Valley (20p, 12r)
Jenna Villa did all the little things for the Beavs, dishing a career-high six assists to go with 10 points (including OSU's only 2 threes), eight rebounds and two blocks
OSU moves on to play LMU - which knocked off the Beavs twice in the regular season by a combined six points - for a shot at their second-straight WCC title game
The game will be a straight rematch for LMU, which closed the regular season by defeating OSU in overtime at Gill Coliseum. The Beavers had a chance to win the game at the end of regulation but a free throw and jump shot both met iron
