The Oregon Ducks entered the series with UCLA looking to add to their momentum from sweeping USC at home last week. That momentum has come to a screeching halt after only picking up 9 hits in the last two games against the UCLA Bruins and being swept out of Los Angeles. Oregon is beginning to out of time to make an impression on the NCAA Tournament Committee for a post season berth and things need to turn around.
An early lead the entire series is what kept the Bruins going. The Oregon Ducks could not catch up or catch up to Bruins pitching.
