Tickets for the Hoopfest Women's Challenge will go on sale beginning Thursday, Aug. 14 via Ticketmaster.
Oregon holds a 7-2 edge in the all-time series with Saint Mary's, with the teams last meeting in 2018, while the Ducks claimed their only matchup with Old Dominion, an 85-64 victory back in 1987. UO and West Georgia will meet for the first time in the season opener while the Ducks are 11-3 all-time against Montana.
UO returns nine players from last year's team, which advanced to the second round of the 2025 NCAA Tournament, while welcoming in two freshmen and three transfers. Oregon was one of only two double-digit seeds to advance out of the first round of last year's NCAA Tournament, finishing the season with a 20-12 record. The postseason bid marked Oregon's sixth NCAA Tournament appearance in the last eight tournaments under head coach Kelly Graves, who enters his 12th season in Eugene.
The remaining games of the Ducks' nonconference schedule will be announced on their social media channels (@OregonWBB) over the coming weeks and will also be listed on the 2025-26 women's basketball schedule page at GoDucks.com.
