The 2021-22 season for Oregon women's basketball unofficially began Monday.
Three weeks after returning to Eugene from an NCAA Tournament run that ended in the Sweet Sixteen, the Ducks were back in the gym to begin offseason workouts. The UO women returned to workouts with a trimmer roster that head coach Kelly Graves hopes can make major progress in the coming weeks and months.
A year after the pandemic denied the Ducks — and everyone else — a traditional offseason, Graves wants to see his team get stronger and more cohesive prior to the formal return to practice in the fall.
