Ducks Earn NCAA Regional Host Spot Again
11 May
Summary
- Oregon Ducks softball secured an NCAA Tournament berth for the sixth consecutive season.
- They will host a Regional at Jane Sanders Stadium for the second year in a row.
- The program aims for a return to the Women's College World Series in 2026.
The Oregon Ducks softball team has secured its sixth consecutive NCAA Tournament berth, a testament to their consistent postseason success. As a result, they will host an NCAA Regional at Jane Sanders Stadium for the second year running. This achievement follows an earlier-than-expected exit from the Big Ten Tournament, which impacted their seeding.
This season, the Ducks welcome the Idaho State Bengals, Saint Mary's Gaels, and the Mississippi State Bulldogs to Eugene for the regional competition. Coach Melyssa Lombardi's team has a history of deep postseason runs, including a Women's College World Series appearance last season. Despite never winning a national championship, the Ducks possess the talent to make another strong bid for the WCWS in 2026.
