Houston dropped both of its games on the second day of the Houston Classic, falling to the No. 21 Oregon Ducks 9-4 and 8-0 to the Oregon State Beavers on Saturday.
The Ducks started out strong as they jumped to a four-point lead by the third while the Cougars could not generate any offense until the bottom of the inning when senior infielder Sarah Queen launched a three-run home run to bring UH within a run.
With a double from sophomore outfielder Aspen Howie, the game was tied at four.
The Ducks responded with bringing home a run and then launching three solo home runs, which gave them a four-point lead after five innings.
