AUDIO: Oregon Softball Excited for Shot at No. 1 UCLA

Oregon Softball (16-19, 1-8 Pac-12) has started conference play slowly, and now the team faces perhaps the toughest test the conference has to offer. UCLA stands as the unanimous no. 1 team in the country according to the NFCA poll; at 35-1, the Bruins have been nearly unbeatable all season long. However, coming off a 3-1 weekend in Columbia, Missouri that saw Oregon creep closer to .500, the Ducks may be on the verge of turning the corner. On Wednesday, April 10, UO head coach Melyssa Lombardi and players Jordan Dail and Haley Cruse detailed what the team must do this weekend to halt the Bruins midway through conference play.
