PREVIEW: Ducks Fly South to Take on Stanford on The Farm

By Johnny Media


EUGENE, Ore - This weekend, the #9 Oregon Ducks will travel to The Farm in Palo Alto, California, and face off with the 1-4 Stanford Cardinal.

The Ducks head into the Saturday matchup as an undefeated team, with Oregon sporting wins over Portland State, Texas Tech, Hawaii, and Colorado. Oregon is coming off an impressive and dominant win over the then #19 ranked Buffaloes. The Ducks held a 35-0 lead going into the half and Colorado only had 31 yards from scrimmage on six drives that ended in six punts. That game ended 42-6 as Colorado scored a garbage-time touchdown with less than three minutes remaining in the game. Oregon looks to continue their dominance in their second game in conference play. You can catch the game at 3:30 on the PAC-12 network, and on KWVA 88.1 FM, where Ryan Milano and Wilder Lewis will be on the call.

SOCCER RECAP: Ducks Stack Experience; Come Up Short Against The Buffs

By David Miller

The Oregon Ducks came home from Arizona ready to run hot in their home conference opener. The Ducks (0-8-2) fought hard, including scoring for the first time at home this season, but it would not be enough to put away Colorado (9-2-0) and the Buffs won 3-1.

The Oregon mist fell over a chilly Papé Field, where the Ducks looked to gain their first win of the season in their Pac-12 conference home opener. The Ducks came into the game off a tough loss in their first conference matchup of the season against Arizona.

The Ducks came out aggressive, which left them vulnerable. A turnover in their own box led to a Colorado goal in just the 10th minute from…

HSFB: Thurston High to Take on Undefeated Crosstown Rival

By Charles Martindale SPRINGFIELD, OR.: About 10 minutes on highway 126 separate the Thurston Colts from Springfield High School, and Friday night, both of Springfield’s high school football teams will converge on Silke field for their first meeting since last year. Background: Things got off to a rocky start for the Colts in 2023, with 20+ point losses spoiling their season and home opener. While the Springfield Millers jumped out to 4-0, the Colts have had to play catch up, entering Friday as winners of back to back games against North Eugene and Crater. The victory in Central Point against Crater saw the Colts put 64 on the board. Springfield also holds a win over Crater, and have averaged over 38 points per game to this point in the season. It’s a big game for the local rivalry, but also for a Thurston team looking to get above .500 for the first time on the young season. Rushing: Arguably the biggest draw to the game is… Read More

PREVIEW: Oregon Volleyball Faces Washington in Rivalry Match

By Cuinn Huber

After two clean sweeps in a row, the No. 6 Oregon Ducks Women's Volleyball team (12-1, 2-0 PAC-12) is preparing for yet another rivalry game against the University of Washington (9-4, 0-2 PAC-12) in what is sure to be a thriller. The Ducks are currently on a roll winning, twelve of thirteen matches so far this season and have swept the last three teams they have played (Marquette, Oregon State, and UCLA). The team dominance is being spearheaded by several players including Mimi Colyer, last year's PAC-12 Freshman of the Year, and Karson Bacon, who was just awarded PAC-12 Defensive Player of the Week. Bacon averaged two blocks a set during last weekend's matches against OSU and UCLA. Having not lost a home game since 2021, the Ducks are looking very good to keep the streak alive.

While the Washington Huskies are not ranked, they are by no means out of this match. Both May Pertofsky and Madi…
