allowed to watch games from
the stands. Instead, they had to
resort to either watching lives-

The athletic directors of all

develop a plan for spectators
checking into games, dealing
with contact tracing, form-
ing guest lists and distribut-
ing tickets. The new reality for
high school athletics during
a pandemic is learning how
to operate given the statewide
guidelines that are constantly
changing.
“Hopefully we will be there

said. “We will constantly re-
evaluate and reassess and move
things as schools get used to
having fans at facilities again.”

COVID-19 issues and injuries.
Coach Bobby Hurley did not
have his entire roster for a sin-
gle game in 2020-21 and the
Sun Devils finished ninth in
the Pac-12 at 7-10.
Second-leading scorer Josh
Christopher missed the final
seven games of the regular sea-
son with a back injury and fel-
low freshman Marcus Bagley
was in and out of the lineup
due to injuries.
Better Beavers
Oregon State may have been
the Pac-12’s most surprising
team.
The Beavers were expected
to be in rebuilding mode and
were picked to finish last in
the preseason poll. Oregon
State exceeded those projec-
tions, finishing 14-12 overall
and 10-10 in conference to end
up sixth in the regular-season
standings.
The Beavers have one of the
conference’s best players in
Ethan Thompson and could be
a tough out in the Pac-12 Tour-
nament.
No Arizona
Arizona will not be in Las
Vegas.
The Wildcats self-imposed
a postseason ban as the pro-
gram awaits word on possible
NCAA sanctions. Arizona was
sent a notice of allegations by
the NCAA last fall and asked
for the case to go through the
Independent Accountability
Resolution Process.
The case is ongoing and the
Wildcats finished 17-9.
Adjusted format
With Arizona out of the
bracket, the Pac-12 Tourna-
ment was left with 11 teams,
so the conference adjusted the
format.
Instead of the top four teams
getting a first-round bye, the
top five will this year, with the
Nos. 4 and 5 seeds facing each
other in the quarterfinals.

Monster Mobley
This year’s Pac-12 Tourna-
ment could be the only one for
USC freshman Evan Mobley.
The 7-foot forward has been
projected to be one of the top
picks in the next NBA draft
and has been dominant at
times during what’s expected
to be his lone season with the
Trojans.
Mobley was a unanimous
selection as The Associated
Press’ Pac-12 newcomer of the
year after averaging 16.1 points
per game and leading the Pac-
12 with 8.4 rebounds. He also
led the conference with 2.8
blocked shots per game and
was third in shooting percent-
age at 58%.
SPORTS BRIEFING
BASKETBALL
ESPN’s Joe Lunardi weighs in on how high Oregon men
will be seeded in NCAA Tournament — Oregon could im-
prove its NCAA Tournament seeding with a successful week in
Las Vegas. ESPN Bracketologist Joe Lunardi has the Pac-12 reg-
ular season champion Ducks (19-5, 14-4 Pac-12) as a No. 6 seed
in his projected field of 68 on Tuesday and 23rd overall, down
one spot from Monday. Should Oregon win the Pac-12 tourna-
ment, which would likely mean multiple Quadrant 1 games to
boost its resume, Lunardi believes UO could move up to a 5 seed.
“I’m hearing from a lot of people that the Ducks are really good
enough to be a top 4 line team — and they probably are from a
basketball standpoint,” Lunardi said.
Selection committee could take ‘reassessment’ of
Oregon women’s tournament seeding — Oregon women’s
basketball is trending in the wrong direction heading into Selec-
tion Monday and it will likely cost the Ducks in terms of their
NCAA Tournament seeding. Oregon (13-8) has lost five of its last
six games, including back-to-back to surging Oregon State last
week, and is expected to be without starting point guard Te-Hina
Paopao for at least the first weekend of the NCAA tourney, if not
the remainder of the postseason. ESPN bracketologist Charlie
Creme weighed in on where he sees the Ducks less than a week
before the field is set. “I think the ceiling now is probably a 6,”
Creme said. “I suppose perhaps a 5. The committee seems to re-
ally like Oregon and the NET certainly like Oregon, but it’s hard
to get over the fact that they haven’t won a top 25 in (six) chances
to do it and they haven’t played well at all in a really long time.”
