The Oregon Ducks took down the USC Trojans 9-2 on Saturday to tie the series at 1-1. Oregon was led by Kenyon Yovan, who pitched eight innings, giving up just two runs and throwing an impressive 15 K's. Rain played a big factor in this one, as the game was delayed for 31 minutes in the bottom of the fourth inning. In that same inning, the Ducks got through their entire order and scored 5 runs. The rainy weather seemed to bother the Trojans all game long, as Oregon earned a majority of their runs of walks, passed balls, and errors. In total, the Trojans three pitchers gave up 13 walks and threw five wild pitches. Oregon only won the hitting battle eight hits to six, but all the mistakes allowed the Ducks to get on base, and they capitalized. Oregon will look to win the series on Sunday at noon, before hosting the Oregon State Beavers on Tuesday. Game Story (by Sean MacPherson)… Read More

No. 2 Oregon Softball followed Friday night's 7-2, extra inning victory over no. 4 Washington with a tight 4-2 win in Seattle Saturday afternoon. The Ducks clawed their way in front in the top of the first 1-0, but quickly trailed after Huskies' left fielder Julia DePonte launched a two-run shot over the fence off UO starter Miranda Elish in the bottom of the frame. Fortunately for the Ducks, Elish would not relinquish another run in the game, finishing with seven hits, two runs, three walks and seven strikeouts in seven full innings. Second baseman Lauren Lindvall tacked the win onto Elish's line with a two-run big fly of her own in the fourth inning, and further secured the result with an RBI single to shortstop in the sixth. The win moves Oregon to 40-7 on the year, and has them a half game back of UCLA in the Pac-12 standings. The Ducks will tie the Bruins if they win Sunday's game, slated to start at 1 PM, to finish off the sweep. GAME STORY (by… Read More

The Oregon baseball team entered the weekend needing at least some type of NCAA tournament resume builder against their rivals and nationally ranked Oregon State Beavers. But the Ducks didn't breakthrough in the three game series, losing in a decisive sweep. With several weeks of baseball to be played, head coach George Horton and the Ducks are looking to put their recent stretch, which has seen them go 3-7 in their last 10 games, behind them. Oregon will get its chance in in the next seven days when the Ducks will host two midweek games, one this Wednesday against Portland and another against Oregon State in a unique non-PAC-12 meeting next Tuesday, along with a three game stint with USC sandwiched between them this coming weekend.
