The Oklahoma women’s basketball program has picked up a commitment from one of the top players in the transfer portal. Former Oregon State star Raegan Beers has announced that she is joining the Sooners.

Beers revealed her decision with a video posted on social media on Monday.

Raegan Beers averaged 17.5 points and 10.3 rebounds per game in 2023-24. She helped Oregon State to a 27-8 record and an Elite Eight berth.

The Beavers faced eventual national champion South Carolina in the Elite 8, falling 70-58.

Raegan Beers just wrapped up her sophomore season of college basketball. She scored in double figures in 31 of 35 games last season, including in all four NCAA Tournament games.

Now she is joining an Oklahoma program led by Jennie Baranczyk.

The Sooners are coming off of a 23-10 (15-3) season. OU earned a No. 5 seed in the 2024 NCAA Tournament, before falling to Indiana in the second round.

Beers is hoping to take the Sooners program to the next level.

Oregon State transfer Talia von Oelhoffen commits to USC

Raegan Beers wasn’t the only former Oregon State star to commit to a new school on Monday.

Former Oregon State guard Talia von Oelhoffen has committed to the USC Trojans.

She announced her commitment via Twitter on Monday, accompanied by set of trading cards showing von Oelhoffen in her new USC threads in an NIL collaboration with Panini America. She is joining USC’s loaded roster following four seasons with the Beavers.

Along with having the nation’s top high school recruiting class, the Trojans also return National Freshman of the Year and All-American JuJu Watkins and recently added Stanford forward Kiki Iriafan through the transfer portal, as well. Iriafan is projected to potentially be the top pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft. von Oelhoffen is joining a squad that on paper will be one of the favorites to win next year’s national title.

von Oelhoffen earned Pac-12 All-Freshman Honorable Mention honors in the 2020-2021 after joining the Beavers mid-way through the season. She averaged 11.3 points and 3.8 rebounds per game on a career-high 44% shooting from the field and 43.4% from behind the three-point line, before becoming a full-time starter for Oregon State.

In the past three seasons, von Oelhoffen has appeared in 92 games and made 90 starts, where she averaged 12.5 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and a steal per game. She led the Beavers in scoring with a career-high 13.7 points per game in the 2021-2022 led the team in assists last season with a career-high 5.0 assists per game as the team’s top distributor.

von Oelhoffen is a two time All-Pac-12 Selection, also earning All-Pac-12 honorable mention honors in the 2022-2023 season when she battled injuries. She’ll now join forces with two other players that were all conference selections last season on the defending Pac-12 champions as they transition to the Big Ten Conference.
