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.
THE CROWN COMES HOME
Tiara Bolden returns to the Beaver State after spending seasons at Eastern Arizona College and La Salle. The Churchill HS (Eugene, Ore.) product averaged 8.0 points/game last season for the Explorers but played her best ball against top teams. Bolden scored 14 points against Virginia and added 12 more against Villanova, both on 50% shooting or better. Down the stretch of the season, the then-junior averaged 10 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game.
CLEAN DEFENSE
Oregon State plays clean, fundamentally sound defense under Scott Rueck. The Beavers rank third in the nation in fewest fouls per game over the last ten seasons, and the lack of fouls means fewer opportunities for opponents at the charity stripe. The Beavs are tied for third nationally in fewest free throws allowed per game over the same time frame.
OUR MISSION
Oregon State Athletics strives to Build Excellent Authentic Visionary Student-Athletes (Go BEAVS).
