Entries: Although head coach Robert Johnson said the opening weekend would be a “rust-buster” for the Oregon team, there will still be plenty of big names in the field for the Ducks.

Jasmine Todd is coming off a long season in 2015 which ended with a silver medal at the IAAF World Championships in the 4x100. She will lead the Oregon women’s sprint crew with Ariana Washington who finished sixth in the 200 last year as a freshman. The women will be represented well on the track all the way up the distances, with NCAA Outdoor 800 Champion Raevyn Rogersentered in the 600 alongside All-American transfer Brooke Feldmeier and a pair of All-Americans in Waverly Neer and Molly Grabill moving down to the mile.
