Saturday marked the final day for historic Howe Field, and the Ducks made sure to give their home a proper goodbye. Oregon scored four runs in the top of the fourth inning, going on to defeat NC State 9-3 in Game 2 of their Super Regional matchup against the Wolfpack, punching their ticket to the Women's College World Series for the second straight year.
Oregon stater Karissa Hovinga delivered a strong performance for the Ducks, going 5.0 innings while giving up one earned run on just two hits with five strikeouts and two walks.
