It’s on to the Pac-12 Championship game for Oregon Women’s basketball after their semi-final win over Arizona on Saturday in Las Vegas.
Senior guard Sabrina Ionescu became the tournament’s all-time leading scorer with 31-points in the 88-70 victory. She has now scored 230 points in the Pac-12 Tournament over the course of her career.
Oregon’s Erin Boley had 18 points, and Ruthy Hebard had 14 points with 11 rebounds for her 55th career double-double. Taylor Chavez and Satou Sabally scored nine points each.
The win means the Ducks will head to their third consecutive tournament final where they’ll face Stanford who advanced with their 67-51 win over UCLA on Saturday.
This is also the third year in a row that the final match will feature the Cardinal and the Ducks. In 2018, Oregon prevailed, while Stanford came out on top in last year’s final.
