Oregon rallied for three runs in the bottom of the 7th to beat Michigan 5-4 at Jane Sanders Stadium Saturday afternoon, moving to 8-1 in conference play.
With the scored tied, bases loaded and two outs Kedre Luschar ripped a single up the middle to score her sister Kai for the win, which brings the Ducks to 34-3 on the year.
They'll go for the series sweep in the second half of the doubleheader, originally scheduled for Sunday but moved to the conclusion of this game to take advantage of favorable weather.
CLUTCH!
