EUGENE, Ore. — Super Regionals opened with the most forgettable performance of the 2018 season by the Oregon softball team. Rallying back to the Women's College World Series will take a comeback to remember.
Kentucky jumped on UO ace Megan Kleist in the first inning, and the Wildcats kept up the pressure on Oregon's pitching and defense all night in a 9-6 victory Thursday before a sellout crowd of 2,522 fans in Jane Sanders Stadium. The Ducks (50-8) hadn't allowed so many runs in a game since April 2017, and committed a season-high four errors.
