March 07, 2024 | Women's Basketball
CORVALLIS, Ore. – Oregon State's Raegan Beers earned her first All-America honor on Thursday, picking up a second-team selection from The Athletic.
The sophomore is OSU's 11th All-American and first since Mikayla Pivec in 2020. She was named an All-America regional finalist last season by the WBCA.
Beers added to the trophy case after earning all-conference honors for the second straight year. The star post led the Beavs with 17.5 points and 10.7 rebounds per game, one of 25 players nationally averaging a double-double.
She was named to the Lisa Leslie Award Top 10 finalists and ranks second in the country in field goal percentage (66.5%). An impact defender, Beers' Her Hoop Stats defensive rating (77.3) ranks second in the conference behind just defensive player of the year Cameron Brink. Her PER (Player Efficiency Rating) is 41.7, also second in the Pac-12 behind Brink and fifth in the nation.
In addition to being All-Pac-12 and an All-America regional finalist, Beers was the Pac-12's Freshman and Sixth Player of the Year last season. She joins a long line of All-American posts at Oregon State that includes Carol Menken, Ruth Hamblin, and Marie Gulich.
Beers and the Beavs battle Colorado later on Thursday. The game tips at 12 p.m. and will be broadcast on Pac-12 Network.
