Oregon State women’s basketball releases 2025-26 non-conference slate

Published 12:00 pm Thursday, August 14, 2025

Oregon State women’s basketball has its 2025-26 non-conference slate.

The Beavers, hot off a West Coast Conference tournament championship and a second-straight NCAA tournament berth, are gearing up for head coach Scott Rueck’s 16th year at the helm. The Beavers’ roster will look different following the graduation of program staples such as guard AJ Marrotte and forward Kelsey Rees.

WCC tournament MVP Catarina Ferreira and starting point guard Kennedie Shuler headline the group of returners in Corvallis, along with seven others. To supplement the roster, Oregon State added several transfers, including former Washington State guard Jenna Villa and former Utah post Néné Sow.

The 2025-26 season will be the Beavers’ second and final year as affiliate members in the WCC, with the new-look Pac-12’s inaugural season slated for the 2026-27 year.

Oregon State begins the 2025-26 campaign at home with an exhibition NCAA DII Alaska Fairbanks at Gill Coliseum on Oct. 25. The Beavers’ first official game comes against NAIA Corban University on Nov. 11 at Gill, kicking off a six-game home stand to start the season.

The Beavers and Oregon Ducks renew their women’s basketball rivalry Dec. 3, facing each other for the first time since the 2023-24 season. The matchup at Oregon’s Matthew Knight Arena will also be Oregon State’s first true road game of the year.

Five of the Oregon State women’s basketball team’s 14 non-conference games come against 2025 NCAA tournament qualifiers, facing Illinois, Vanderbilt, Oregon, Montana State and Liberty.
