After a complete game from Freshman Megan Kleist in the NCAA Tournament Opening game against Fordham on Friday night, the Oregon Ducks went with the four year Starter Cheridan Hawkins on Saturday against Baylor. Hawkins comes in winning her third straight Pac-12 Pitcher of the Year award and posted a 1.44 ERA in Pac-12 play this season.
Opposite Hawkins, Heather Stearns from Baylor who has a season ERA of 1.89. She has also posted 20 wins on the year. It would be quite the matchup and over 2000 were on hand for the Oregon Ducks second round game.
