No. 21 Oregon women’s basketball upset by Georgia Tech in Hawaii tournament


The early-season undefeated run is over.

No. 21 Oregon women’s basketball was dominated on the boards in a 74-58 loss to Georgia Tech on Monday night at the North Shore Showcase tournament in Laie, Hawaii.

Oregon (6-1) was out-rebounded, 53-31, by Georgia Tech (6-0) including 23 offensive rebounds. The Ducks got a team-high 10 points from senior guard Deja Kelly, supplemented by nine from fellow senior Peyton Scott and eight from freshman forward Ehis Etute — making her season debut for the Ducks after spending time with the Luxembourg national team.

Georgia Tech was led by Ariadna Termis with 13 points, Zoesha Smith with 12, and Ines Noguero with 11.

The Ducks got off to a slow start, trailing 16-7 with their interior defense and rebounding lacking. Georgia Tech slashed through the lane and scored easy buckets in transition, amassing nine offensive rebounds in the first quarter alone.

The Yellow Jackets led, 18-11, through one quarter. Oregon had not previously trailed by more than five at any point in its first six games.

In the second quarter, Oregon got some momentum buckets from Scott and Nani Falatea to claw back into the game. A 7-0 run late in the first gave the Ducks their first lead of the night, 25-24. Georgia Tech would mount a response and carry a 29-27 lead into the half.

The likely halftime message from Oregon coach Kelly Graves? Hit the boards. Oregon was out-rebounded 32-21 in the first half by Georgia Tech and gave up 14 offensive rebounds. Neither team shot the ball particularly well, either, with Oregon shooting 31% in the half to Georgia Tech’s 29%.

Transition play highlighted a breakneck early third quarter for both teams, with Georgia Tech extending its lead to 39-33 with 4:55 left in the frame. Oregon’s size advantage was counteracted by Georgia Tech’s speed and athleticism, and Graves experimented with different lineups to try and slow the Yellow Jackets down.

Kelly took over as the third quarter progressed, hitting key jumpers and driving to the lane as Oregon cut the Georgia Tech lead to 46-43 through three.

Georgia Tech seized momentum permanently in the early fourth. A three-pointer by Noguero made it 52-43 Yellow Jackets, and Oregon threw the ball out of bounds on the ensuing inbound. Graves called timeout as the Georgia Tech bench erupted.

The Yellow Jackets scored out of the timeout to make it 54-43, and a bucket for Kara Dunn extended the advantage to 56-43 with just under eight minutes left.

Oregon struggled to keep possession of the ball, Georgia Tech hit big shots, and the lead ballooned down the stretch. A Dani Carnegie jumper made it 68-49 Yellow Jackets with 4:37 to go, and a feisty Georgia Tech team didn’t look back en route to a dominant victory.

After a historic 2025 campaign for the program in Oxford, Pete Golding and Co. will have home-field advantage in the first-round of the College Football Playoff against a fiery Tulane squad.

When Georgia basketball took the court Saturday afternoon at State Farm Arena, it resembled a team who had not faced another opponent in 11 days.

The Bulldogs came out lackadaisical with more turnovers than successful shots in the game’s first two minutes and faced an 11-point deficit before halftime.

Two freshman Georgia football players arrested on shoplifting charges

Two freshman Georgia football players arrested on shoplifting charges


Georgia offensive lineman Dontrell Glover and running back Bo Walker were arrested for shoplifting at a Walmart on Friday, less than a week after the Bulldogs won the SEC Championship.

According to the Athens Banner-Herald, the freshmen were booked into Clarke County jail in Athens on two counts of misdemeanor shoplifting. Glover and Walker were arrested Friday evening and released on $1,526 bond before 8 p.m.

“We were informed of the charges and are currently in the process of gathering additional information,” Georgia spokesman Steve Drummond said in a statement. “This is a pending legal matter and we will not have further comment at this time.”

Walker played six games this season and rushed for 100 yards and three touchdowns. Glover started 11 games in 2025 and was named to the All-SEC freshman team.

Last month, offensive lineman Nyier Daniels was dismissed from the team by head coach Kirby Smart after he was arrested on more than a dozen criminal charges after he allegedly tried to flee from police north of Athens.

The Bulldogs beat Alabama last Saturday in the SEC title game and earned a place in the College Football Playoff. They will play again on Jan. 1 against the winner of Ole Miss-Tulane in the College Football Playoff quarterfinals.
