With the College World Series ending with an LSU dogpile on the mound, all six college baseball polls have been released one final time and the Ducks are squarely in the middle of all of them.
According to these polls, Oregon baseball finds itself ranked as high as No. 12 and as low as No. 19.
D1Baseball.com was the poll that gave the Ducks their highest ranking and well … USA TODAY Sports gave the lowest.
Baseball America ranked Oregon 13th and the National College Baseball Writers of America said the Ducks were No. 14 in the country.
Collegiate Baseball Newspaper also gave Oregon a No. 13 ranking as did Perfect Game.
All in all, it’s a solid ending for the Ducks, but obviously it’s not where Oregon or its head coach Mark Wasikowski envisioned at the start of the season. The goal is and always has been to reach Omaha and the CWS, a goal that’s still elusive for the Ducks.
For the 2024 season, Oregon is expected to field another strong team that will contend for its first Pac-12 regular season title and hopefully its first trip to Omaha since 1954.
