McNeese women's basketball (3-6) will conclude its West Coast trip Monday night in Eugene, Oregon against the University of Oregon. Tipoff is set for 8 p.m. (CT). Streaming will be available on the Oregon Live Stream.
 
The Cowgirls are coming off a 102-60 loss at California on Saturday and will face another tough Pac-12 opponent in Oregon who was ranked No. 10 in the preseason poll but has since dropped out of the poll. The Ducks did receive votes in last week's poll and enter the game without three All-Pac-12 players due to injuries.
 
McNeese who hasn't gotten off to a good start in its last four losses will look to change that Monday night . The Cowgirls enter the game shooting 37.0 percent from the field and rely heavily on the three-pointer where they are shooting 29.9 percent.
 
Desirae Hansen who is coming off a 16-point game against Cal, leads the Cowgirls in scoring with 10.9 ppg. and is the only Cowgirl averaging in double figures. Divine Tanks continues to lead the Cowgirls in rebounds with 8.1 per game. Tanks was credited with seven rebounds against the Bears on Saturday.
 
Despite being hit with the injury bug, Oregon has the depth that has had to step up in place of the injured players. The Ducks are coming off a 68-59 home win over previously unbeaten Long Beach State on Saturday.
 
Three players are currently averaging in double figures with Sedono Prince leading the way with 12.5 ppg.. Sydney Parrish is averaging 12.4 ppg. and Ahlise Hurst is averaging 11.8 ppg. Guard Maddie Scherr, who ranks second in the Pac-12 in assists, is coming off a career high nine against Long Beach State.
