BUSHNELL BB PREVIEW: Beacons Host Thunderbirds in Toughest Test Yet
Written by Mario Ponce
EUGENE, Ore - The Bushnell Beacons baseball team (5-4) will host the University of British Columbia Thunderbirds (8-3) over the weekend, with double headers on Friday and Saturday. This will be the first four game series and start of conference play for both teams in this season of the Cascade Collegiate Conference.
Bushnell Beacons:
The Beacons started their season with mixed fortunes, loosing their opening series against the Jessup Warriors and winning their series against the Simpson Red Hawks. These games will be their first home series of the season, their third campaign at the Hamlin Sports Complex in Springfield. Bushnell has been a high scoring team this season, scoring double digit runs on three of their games. They have a two game winning streak, beating the Saint Martin’s Saints five runs to one last Sunday in Tacoma, Washington. A major theme for the Beacons this season is late game…

By Charles Martindale
The last time Oregon baseball took the field at P.K. Park, it played to keep its College World Series hopes alive. While the Eugene Super Regional ended in heartbreak for the 2023 Ducks, they undeniably raised the bar for an Oregon baseball program that is still relatively young. With the calendar now turned to 2024, and with expectations high, the Ducks will once more compete in front of their home fans in Eugene, this time in a four-game set against the Lafayette College Leopards.
Oregon is coming off a 2-1 weekend at the Shriners Children's College Showdown in Texas, where they were able to defeat Baylor and fellow 2023 regional team Oklahoma. Even in Sunday’s loss, the Ducks put up 28 baserunners against No. 18 ranked Texas Tech. It’s safe to say the invitational brought encouraging signs for head coach Mike Wasikowski’s squad, which still has a young, unheralded roster. On the opposite end of the spectrum, Lafayette College…
