Looking Past COVID-19
In the midst of the corona virus pandemic and the forced shutdown of sporting activities, we look to the future. The Oregon Ducks are reporting a strong lineup for late fall on the basketball court. The Ducks will be without the year’s reigning PAC-12 player of the year Payton Pritchard as well as Shakur Juiston and Anthony Mathis. But the rest of the lineup will be steady with returning players as Dana Altman readies for his 11th season as head Coach. Will Richardson and Chris Duarte will start as guards with CJ Walker and Addison Patterson attacking from the perimeter and post play will be shared by Chandler Lawson and N’Faly Dante. Altman is positive about the lineup saying that “If Everybody makes steps” he really like the direction the team can go.
