The first postseason run for Oregon women's basketball under Kelly Graves ended against South Dakota. The Ducks hope their next extended postseason stay begins against those same Coyotes.
Five years after South Dakota beat visiting Oregon in the semifinals of the WNIT, the Ducks will face the Coyotes in the opening round of this year's NCAA Tournament in San Antonio. The UO women received a No. 6 seed Monday in the tournament's Alamo Region, and will face the 11th-seeded Coyotes next Monday (7 p.m., ESPN2).
"I'm really proud of this group," UO coach Kelly Graves said following the selection show.
