Oregon Ducks In NCAA Tournament For Fifth Straight Year

The Oregon Ducks qualified for their fifth straight NCAA tournament appearance this season. Oregon finished with a record of 42-14 overall and 22-8 in Big Ten conference play. Despite it being their first season as a member of the Big Ten, the Ducks won the Big Ten regular season title and earned the No. 1 seed in the Big Ten tournament. Oregon had an early exit there, losing to the eventual Big Ten tournament champion Nebraska Cornhuskers in pool play. 

The previous two seasons, Oregon has made it past the opening regional. They have been knocking on the door of the College World Series both of these years but fell in the Super Regionals (lost to Oral Roberts in 2023 and Texas A&M in 2024). 

Sixth year Oregon coach Mark Wasikowski will look to snap the long World Series drought drought for the Ducks. Oregon has one College World Series appearance and it was all the way back in 1954.
