What to know: This marks the first of four games for Iowa against the four former Pac-12 teams. In addition to the game at Washington on Wednesday, the Hawkeyes have home dates with USC and UCLA in February.

The only prior meeting between the two teams was an Iowa overtime victory in the first round of the 2001 NCAA tournament in Salt Lake City.

Iowa has suffered four consecutive losses, its longest skid since 2016. In conference games only, the Hawkeyes are a very un-Iowa-like 17th in the Big Ten in free-throw percentage (.648). They were 16 of 29 in a loss to Nebraska on Thursday.

Lucy Olsen leads the Hawkeyes at 16.3 points per game, followed by Hannah Stuelke (12.9) and Addison O’Grady (12.3).

Eugene is 99 miles from Sherwood, Ore., home of Iowa freshman post Ava Heiden.

Oregon started 6-0, hit some turbulence, and enters this game with four wins in its last five outings.

The Ducks average 71.7 points per game with only two double-digit scorers -- Deja Kelly (11.1 ppg) and Peyton Scott (10.8).

A pair of graduate-student guards, Kelly transferred from North Carolina, Scott from Miami (Ohio).
