The No. 9 Oregon Ducks have their first triple-header home game series this season against the No. 5 Cal State Fullerton Titans on Friday, Feb. 28 at 6 p.m. at PK Park in Eugene, Ore. The Ducks are looking to extend their eight-game win streak tonight after an 8-2 win Tuesday night against the Portland Pilots. University of Oregon coach George Horton is a Cal State Fullerton alumni who was an assistant and head coach for the Titans from 1991-2007. The Ducks will have a lot of pressure tonight as this non-conference series can greatly impact if the team earns the right to host NCAA regional rounds in the postseason.
The Ducks will continue their triple-header against Cal State Fullerton tomorrow afternoon at 2 p.m. at PK Park in Eugene, Ore.
