CORVALLIS – Oregon State added size and experience to its 2023-24 roster with the addition of Kelsey Rees, a 6-5 forward who spent three seasons in the Pac-12 at Utah. "We are excited to announce the signing of Kelsey Rees," Oregon State head coach Scott Rueck said. "I am so impressed by the person she is and the way she competes on the court. She is a versatile player who can play both post positions and is an offensive threat from all over the court. In addition to her low-post game, she has a beautiful three point shot, is an aggressive driver, and outstanding passer. Defensively, Kelsey is a tough defender and consistently blocks and alters shots and will fight for every rebound with intensity. She is a perfect complement to our roster as well as our community and we are happy she chose to be a part of Beaver Nation and our basketball family!"

The time for the game is to be determined.

Oregon State added a commitment from class of 2024 wide receiver Logan Saldate, a 3-star WR out of California. Saldate, who stands at 5-11, committed to Oregon State over the likes of Arizona, Washington, Oklahoma State and Cal, to name a few. He is set to begin his senior year at Palma high school in Selinas, California.

2022 was something of a bumpy year for Oregon softball. The Ducks endured their Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad April, and in spite of that they did pick their game up - so to speak - at the end of the regular season, with a sweep of Oregon State and a series win over Stanford. Heading into the NCAA Tournament, the Ducks won both games against Wichita State but lost both games to #4 Arkansas, who advanced into the Super Regional (the Razorbacks hosted the Super Regional, but were bounced by Texas, who made it to the CWS and were runner-up to champion Oklahoma). Regardless, in spite of that disappointing April, they did make it to the post-season.

Palma (California) three-star wide receiver Logan Saldate has never taken a college visit - official or otherwise - to Corvallis. In fact, the 5-foot-11, 185-pound pass-catcher has never even been to the celebrated college town. But he knows it's home. On Monday, Saldate announced his commitment to ...

It’s hard to ignore USC fans these days, as most of them seem far too happy about joining the B1G. They gleefully lord it over the rest of the Pac-12 as they seem to take some perverse joy out of the fact that they may have brought upon the demise of their current conference rivals. Which is rather pathetic when you think about it, because it’s not that USC has been all too dominant on the field for the last decade, but they are cheering the defeat of their rivals because they stabbed the conference in the back and are going to the B1G instead.

A head coach is only as good as his staff. Well, maybe that’s not an actual saying in college football. But it doesn’t hurt to have continuity and quality on a coaching staff. Oregon State certainly thinks so. They rewarded key assistant coaches with significant raises in salary...

After a disappointing 0-2 showing the Pac-12 Tournament, the Beavers are backing in to the postseason. Despite the losses, the Beavers should still at least land a 2 seed in the field, though their odds of hosting a regional are long gone. The NCAA has announced the 16 schools which...

Here is a breakdown of what Oregon freshman My'Keil Gardner showed during his first spring football camp. Eighteen members of Oregon's 2023 signing class enrolled in classes this spring to get a jumpstart on their collegiate careers.

Oregon more than doubled its list of NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championship qualifiers Saturday night. Seven athletes and both of the Ducks' relay teams extended their seasons on the final day of the NCAA West Preliminary meet at Hornet Stadium in Sacramento to earn a spot on the team headed to Austin, Texas, June 7-10 for the national championship meet.

EUGENE — The points for the Philomath High girls track and field team just kept piling up all afternoon — Janice Hellesto in the 100, long jump and 200, Natalie Dunn in the 400, Adele Beckstead in the 1,500, Ellie Morton in the 100, Madison Schaffer in the pole vault and both the short and long relays.

Oregon State’s cost of constructing a winning football program is going up for the 2023 season. The Beavers’ 10 assistant coaches recently agreed and signed two-year contracts, running through the 2024 season. The salary pool for the 2023 season is $4.75 million, an increase of $820,000 over last season.

Oregon State will send three athletes to the NCAA track & field meet after Grace Fetherstonhaugh, Kaylee Mitchell and Jade Whitfield earned berths Saturday at the West Regional in Sacramento. Fetherstonhaugh and Mitchell each won heats in 3000-meter steeplechase to advance, while Whitfield took third in discus. The NCAA track...

Raise your hand if you expected an Oregon-Arizona final in the Pac-12 baseball tournament in Scottsdale, Ariz. There would most likely be very few hands raised because these two teams weren’t exactly hitting on all cylinders coming into this tourney. Oregon was a 6-seed and Arizona was an 8-seed for a reason. The Ducks were losers of five of their last seven, including being swept at home by Washington, the team they just defeated 12-7 in the semifinals. If Oregon hadn’t won its last two games over last-place Utah, this might be a very different article. As for the Wildcats, they entered the...

Over the weekend, Melbourne (Fla.) Eau Gallie 2025 offensive lineman Chavez Thompson, also known as Sandman Thompson, told 247Sports he has given an early commitment to Oregon. The 6-foot-1, 270-pound Thompson was offered by the Ducks in February. “Oregon just seem like a perfect fit,” Thompson said. He will play...
