On Tuesday, the Oregon women’s basketball team held its first practice for this week’s Pac-12 Tournament, and did its best to flush the events of the previous seven days.
The Tuesday before, all-time UO great Jillian Alleyne had suffered an injury in practice that ended her collegiate career. Senior guard Jordan Loera also was hurt in practice last week, and won’t play the rest of the season. Still clinging to NCAA Tournament hopes, the Ducks went down to the Bay Area and lost twice. Then, their flight home to Eugene on Sunday was cancelled, and the UO women didn’t return until Monday.
