Oregon lands one of nation's top high school distance runners ahead of schedule
One of the nation's top high school distance runners is moving on to the collegiate level ahead of schedule. Ellery Lincoln, a senior at Lincoln High School in Portland, Oregon , will graduate early and enroll at the University of Oregon in January, forgoing her final high school track and field season to compete for the Ducks during the 2026-27 indoor campaign. The news was first reported by DyeStat, and later reported by the Eugene Register-Guard, part of the USA TODAY Network . "I just wanna say that there's a lot of thought put into this decision and the people around me wouldn't let me make a self-destructive choice," Lincoln told DyeStat. "And I've got a lot of people in my corner helping support me through this transition and I feel very confident about where I'm going." The decision comes after Lincoln capped her high school cross-country career with a second consecutive OSAA Class 6A state championship last weekend. She won in a course-record 16 minutes, 57.6 seconds at Lane Community College. Lincoln has established herself as one of the most accomplished distance runners in Oregon high school history. She owns state records in the 1,500 meters (4:07.06), mile (4:27.65)

Four games that matter for Oregon's Big Ten title chances in Week 11
Having suffered three losses before the calendar flipped to November, the Oregon Ducks find themselves scrapping and clawing to make the Big Ten championship game, hoping to give themselves a shot at the College Football Playoff. It's not an enviable spot to be in, as the Ducks need to receive some help in order to reach the conference title game — but it's the spot that Oregon has put itself in. They've done their part in digging themselves out of a hole, winning two straight must-wins against Northwestern and Ohio State. The wins must continue in the final three regular-season games, home contests against Michigan and Washington and road date with Michigan State. If they don't go 3-0, nothing else matters and the Ducks will be packing their bags for a no-name bowl game in roughly a month. If they don't get some help, and the CFP Committee doesn't deem them worthy of receiving an at-large bid to the 12-team field, that same result will occur. Help is very much needed, and Week 11 is the most important week of them all. Last week, there were ten teams with two or fewer losses in Big Ten play. Now, after Minnesota
