Last season, Oregon used its offensive prowess and some impressive pitching performances to capture the Pac-12 Tournament title, and considering the growth and maturing of the team in 2024, it wasn’t out of the realm of possibility that they could do it again.
Unfortunately this time down in Scottsdale, a repeat performance was far from in the works.
Oregon was defeated in back-to-back games against Utah and USC, the former being a team they had just won a series against earlier in the month.
In the month of May, the Ducks had been averaging nearly eight runs scored a game.
