PORTLAND – The Portland Pilots and Oregon Ducks men's basketball programs have agreed to play this Saturday at Matthew Knight Arena in Eugene. Tip-off will be noon and the game will be televised live on Pac-12 Network with radio coverage on 910 ESPN-Portland (KMTT).
The Pilots (5-1) will enter Saturday on a five-game winning streak, which includes wins over in-state rivals Portland State and Oregon State. Portland has swept the three in-state schools twice in program history: during the 2005-06 and 1956-57 seasons.
This will be the first meeting between the schools since Portland defeated Oregon by an 88-81 margin at the Chiles Center on Nov.
