The Oregon Ducks face the Kentucky Wildcats in the super regional round of the NCAA softball tournament, with Game 1 of the best-of-three series set for 6 p.m. Thursday at Jane Sanders Stadium in Eugene.
Top-seeded Oregon used dominant pitching performances from Miranda Elish and Megan Kleist to cruise through the Eugene Regional last week. Meanwhile, No. 16 seed Kentucky used its offense to blow past its regional opponents by scores of 10-1, 10-0 and 8-0.
Will the Ducks down the Wildcats in the Eugene Super Regional for the second year in a row to advance to the Women's College World Series?
