Oregon’s Bench Left Sparse After Four Transfers, Must Rely on Elite Starters

The Oregon Women’s Basketball team will be one of the betting favorites for the 2018 season, but they’ll have to do it with less bench support than expected.

The Ducks are coming off a historic season in which they went 33-5, won the conference regular season, and defeated Stanford in the PAC-12 Tournament Championship. Their season ended against Notre Dame, the eventual National Champions, in their second straight elite eight appearance.

But with great success comes great bench players transferring away. Thus is the case with the Oregon Duck squad of 2018, which now must change their game-plan after the departures of Sierra Campisano, Mallory McGwire, Aina Ayuso and Anneli Maley.
