An up-and-down season unsurprisingly sends Oregon’s softball team on the road for its shot at the Regionals. The Ducks travel to Fayetteville, Arkansas for games beginning Friday, May 20. Oregon will face Wichita State in its first match-up, while host and #4 seed Arkansas takes on Princeton. Regionals are 4-team, double-elimination tournaments with everyone playing at least 2 games and the eventual Regional Champion having lost no more than one game. The entire field of 16 such mini-tournaments features 64 of the nation’s best teams, with the top 16 seeds each hosting a Regional. There are 32 automatic bids, and 32 at-large bids.
