After being no-hit earlier today by Mississippi State, the Oregon Ducks softball season has ended after a 5-4 loss to the St. Mary’s Gaels.

The Ducks had a 3-0 lead until the bottom of the 4th, when St. Mary’s took the lead 4-3. Oregon would tie it up at 4-4, but a triple in the bottom of the 5th for St. Mary’s would give them the lead for good.

And so, after a very good but not great regular season, back to back losses at home when hosting a regional as the number 14th ranked team nationally have ended their season.

The Ducks were no-hit by Mississippi State’s Alyssa Faircloth and were a single walk away from a perfect game being thrown against them.

This type of performance when hosting a softball regional, obviously at home, cannot happen. And definitely not against the 13th-placed SEC team in the postseason!

Maybe the SEC is just that much better. And maybe that is just the karma for hythloday’s preview, lol.
