I've been pretty mum on this, but I am definitely beginning to think Rasmussen returning is unlikely... after watching BVS & Amber on IG live last night, I think she may be making her return this coming weekend. She is close to being cleared, but I don't think we can confidently say that she will be making her return this weekend. However, for those of you who think that she will not be playing for the rest of the season, I think that you will be pleasantly surprised.

If she makes a return for this weekend it would be the absolute perfect timing. This weekend separates the princesses from the queens.

There is a difference between cleared, and fit and ready.

Our RPI has taken a a bit of a hit this week (down to #17) but that was to be expected playing the bottom feeders of the conference. Next week will be important for both the BW Championship and hosting. Hopefully Brooke will be healthy by Friday and Jolie will continue her progression on getting back on the court.

Plus ... a lot of Hawaii's nonconference opponents had mixed results this week... many of them went 1-1 for the week.

UCLA actually did so well they jumped over us in RPI....

Our last BWC Freshmen of the Year was Nikki Taylor (2013). Norene (2016), was our last player to make the All Freshmen team. So, it's been a while since we've had any high impact freshmen.

Here's a take on your big-picture remainder of the season from VT's new resident Alaskan member (tho' I did follow the UO team when I was in Eugene). JR comes back healthy: fairly deep run in the NCAAs. She comes back too early, gets reinjured, or does not return: rather short run in the 1st weekend. As a former Oregonian, you can see what injuries did to the Ducks this year!

It did last year. The Wahine upset Cal Poly the first night and got swept by Santa Barbara the next Its best probably not to compare the 18 and 19 squad as the 18 squad literally returned only one starter in Iosia. You're literally the one that said "One might say it’s a trap weekend having two of the best teams playing. However that’s never rattled Hawaii back then I hope they get two W's" Now you're saying not to compare the two teams? So what are you referring to? How far back then are you talking about? Because it was obviously a trap weekend last year with them winning the better team and losing to the weaker one. So last year doesn't count just because Norene was the only returning starter, kinda like this season being the only returning starter.

Started UO'S decline IMO. Aloha.

They were losing before she went down, she is back and they are still losing. It’s unfortunate. Some of their players are not 100 percent correct but Oregon should not be losing like this.
