It took eleven (11) innings, but the Oregon Ducks gave No. 1 UCLA all it could handle as the Bruins beat the UO at the Big 10 Baseball Tournament, Sunday, inside a nearly empty Omaha, Nebraska Stadium, 3-2 (11). Oregon (40-16) will now wait the NCAA Selection Show to see who will join them at the Eugene Regional.

Eugene Selected as One of 16 Regional Host Sites

UO release - EUGENE, Ore. – Oregon has been selected as one of the 16 teams to host an NCAA Regional Tournament starting this Friday at PK Park. The Ducks will learn their seeding and what three other teams will make up the Eugene Regional when the bracket is released on the selection show starting Monday morning at 9 a.m. on ESPN2. Oregon will be hosting an NCAA Regional for the fifth time in the last 15 years. The Ducks previously hosted regionals in 2012, 2013, 2021 and 2025. Oregon has also hosted a pair of Super Regionals (2012, 2023). With the announcement of Eugene as a host site, 2026 becomes the sixth consecutive year that Oregon has qualified for the NCAA Tournament, with all six coming during the Mark Wasikowski era. Since the return of baseball in 2009, the Ducks have been selected to participate in the NCAA Tournament 11 times, with the current six-year streak marking the most consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances in program history.
