The Oregon Ducks are staying alive and getting set to host the biggest baseball series that Eugene has seen in over a decade.
After sweeping the Nashville Regional as the No. 2 seed over the weekend, Mark Wasikowski and the Ducks come home to Eugene where they will play host to Oral Roberts in the Eugene Super Regional.
After winning the Pac-12 tournament a couple of weekends ago and making their way past Xavier and Vanderbilt over the weekend, the Ducks are currently on a nine-game winning streak. With two more wins, they will secure their spot in the College World Series for the first time in over 70 years.
