SAN DIEGO (Interstat) — The Oregon State Beavers, riding a three-game winning streak and bolstering their NCAA tournament resume, visit the struggling San Diego Toreros in a West Coast Conference women’s basketball rematch Thursday night at Jenny Craig Pavilion. Oregon State (20-9) enters with significant momentum, having won five of its last seven, including a dominant 79-51 victory over Washington State last Saturday. The Beavers previously handled San Diego 61-43 in Corvallis just four weeks ago. A key figure for the Beavers is guard Jenna Villa, who is coming off a 20-point, 9-rebound performance against Washington State. Over her last eight games, Villa is averaging 12.6 points and has been a consistent all-around contributor. She tallied 4 assists in the January win over San Diego. The Toreros (9-20), meanwhile, seek to halt a four-game slide and find a spark before their season finale. They have lost 10 of their last 12 contests. Guard Kylie Ray has emerged as a bright spot, averaging 18.6 points over her last five games, including a 25-point effort against Gonzaga. Her role was limited to just three minutes in the prior meeting with Oregon State due to injury, making her availability and impact a central storyline for the rematch. Oregon State’s recent success has been fueled by balance. In the win over Washington State, Kennedie Shuler added 20 points and Lizzy Williamson posted a double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds. The Beavers’ defense has been stifling during their streak, holding opponents to an average of 55 points per game. San Diego, which last won on Feb. 7 against Seattle, will need a stronger offensive showing after being held to a season-low 43 points in the first meeting. Olivia Owens and Helen Holley will be relied upon to support Ray’s scoring. Tipoff is set for 7 p.m. PST. Oregon State’s next game is at home against Loyola Marymount on Saturday. San Diego hosts Pacific on Saturday to conclude its regular season.
