Things were fairly even in the first inning as both Starters settled in, or so they thought. Gwen Svekis found her early season power hitting two home runs with her first coming in the second inning to give the Oregon Ducks a 1-0 lead It was the first lead for Oregon Starter Megan Kleist since the non-conference part of the season.

Kleist did not allow an Arizona runner to reach first base until the fourth inning.
