Oregon Ducks gain star distance runners from the University of San Francisco

The Oregon Ducks' reshuffled women's cross country team will include two star distance runners who will transfer from the University of San Francisco.

Weronika Pyzik, fifth-place finisher at the 2017 NCAA Cross Country Championships and Isabelle Brauer, who came in 15th for USF at the NCAA cross country meet, will join the Ducks.

The news was first reported by the track and field website FloTrack.

Former USF coach Helen Lehman-Winters left the Dons after the 2018 outdoor season to become the UO women's distance coach. She replaces Maurica Powell, now head coach at Washington.
