The Oregon<\/a> Ducks<\/a> baseball team has been here before. But they’ve never got past this round of the Super Regionals since the program returned in 2009.<\/p>\n

They are hoping this time is different<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Oregon<\/a> the 11-seed of the NCAA tournament, will play 6-seed Texas<\/a> in Game 1 of this Super Regional in Austin with a trip to the Men’s College World Series on the line. The Ducks made it here thanks to three wins in the Eugene Regional against Yale<\/a>, Washington State<\/a> and finally their rival Oregon State<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As for the Longhorns<\/a> (43-13), they managed to win their regional with victories over Holy Cross, Tarleton State and a 6-4 win over UC-Santa Barbara to move on in the tournament.<\/p>\n

The last time the Ducks were in this position, it was 2024 and Texas was also the site, but the opponent was Texas A&M, where the Aggies won two straight. Oregon is looking for its first trip to Omaha since 1954, which happens to be its only trip there.<\/p>\n

Oregon will be going with right-hander Cal Scolari (5-0, 2.70 earned run average) in Game 1 and Texas will counter with lefty Dylan Volantis (9-1, 1.94 ERA). The Ducks have announced Will Sanford will go in Game 2, but the Longhorns have yet to name a starter for Sunday’s game.<\/p>\n

Game 1 of the Super Regional is set for a 5:06 pm PST first pitch and will be televised on ESPN. Follow along here for our live blog, scores, and analysis.<\/p>\n
