Oregon forward Chris Boucher will return to the school next year after the team announced that the NCAA granted him an additional year of eligibility Wednesday.
Boucher has provided an immediate impact after arriving from Northwest College in Wyoming. In 34 games for the Ducks this year, the junior college transfer has averaged 12.1 points and 7.6 rebounds. He's also shooting an impressive 54.2 percent from the field and 36 percent from beyond the arc.
Last November, the NCAA originally ruled Boucher would only be eligible for one year.
"After completing his academic requirements at the two junior colleges, it was determined that Chris Boucher currently has one year of eligibility remaining," said the Oregon athletic department, per Matt Prehm of 247Sports' Duck Territory.
