Oregon Softball Named Number 3 Seed, Set To Host Eugene Regional
The Oregon Ducks Softball team ended the regular season with a sweep of Florida State and Stanford and were rewarded on Sunday.
The team will begin the postseason as the number three seed in the NCAA Tournament and host the Eugene Regional. UCLA comes in behind the Oregon Ducks as a 5 seed and unlike last season will not meet the Ducks in the Regional or Super Regional round. They may face each other down the line.
The Eugene Regional includes Missouri, Wisconson, and Illinois-Chicago. The first weekend will play as a double elimination tournament. With the regular season concluded, several Oregon Ducks were honored by the Pac-12 Conference on Monday.
Four Oregon Ducks including Nikki Udria, Danica Mercado, Maggie Balint, and Megan Kleist were named First Team All-Conference. Alexis Mack made the Second Team and Mia Camuso and Gwen Svekis landed on the Third Team All-Conference list.
Mike White is undefeated at home in the Regional Round of the postseason (21-0). Oregon enters the postseason on a ten game winning streak including beating a very talented Florida State team just a few weeks ago.
