The Oregon Ducks are set to meet the nation's sixth-ranked team in a three-game series in Austin, Texas, with the victor moving on to the College World Series in Omaha.
The series follows a best-of-three format, meaning the first team to win two games advances, adding urgency to every contest.
Games are scheduled to start at 5:00 p.m. local time and will be televised on ESPN, while radio listeners can tune in via the Oregon Sports Radio Network.
What's at stake for Oregon
Beyond the ranking, the matchup offers the Ducks a chance to display their depth, pitching staff and offensive firepower on a national stage. A win would not only secure a spot in the CWS but also boost recruiting and momentum heading into the next season.
