DEFENSIVE GAMECHANGER
Bendu Yeaney's arrival in Corvallis gave the Beavers a powerful on-ball defender they haven't had since the days of Gabby Hansen. Yeaney, a transfer from Arizona, has racked up 21 three-steal games over the last three seasons with her team going 14-7 in those contests. The senior has also had at least one steal and one block in 42 games in her career. Her team is 32-10 in those games.
DEVELOPING IN THE POST
Jelena Mitrovic has experienced exponential growth since coming to Corvallis nearly four years ago. The redshirt sophomore sat all of her first season at Oregon State before playing sparingly as a redshirt freshman. She earned a spot in the rotation last season and gained a starting spot for the WNIT before carrying that spot into 2022-23
SHE'S THE MANNEN
Noelle Mannen transferred to OSU four years ago and walked on after not playing basketball for a year at San Francisco. Since then, she's become an important on and off-court leader for the Beavs, earning a scholarship before last season and getting her first start against Hawai'i. Mannen is second on the team in plus-minus (+94).
