While the Oregon Ducks season ended earlier this week against Notre Dame in Spokane, the accomplishments of the 2017-18 team are still being recognized. Sophomores Sabrina Ionescu and Ruthy Hebard guided the Oregon Ducks to the Elite 8 over the past two seasons, coming up short against Connecticut and Notre Dame.
Both players have been named to the Naismith Starting Five. An honor voted on by the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame and the Women’s Basketball Coaches Association. Oregon is the only school with two players represented with the honor.
Sabrina Ionescu was named Nancy Lieberman Point Guard of the Year.
