LOS ANGELES, Calif. — UCLA closed out Senior Day in dominant fashion, defeating No. 11 Oregon 11–3 in a five-inning run-rule victory at Easton Stadium. The Bruins came out swinging early, putting pressure on Oregon right away with two runs in the first inning before exploding for six more in the second. From that point on, UCLA never lost control of the game.
Even when Oregon answered with three runs in the third inning, the Bruins stayed composed and responded with three more runs of their own in the fourth to put the game away. UCLA’s offense was sharp throughout the matchup, finishing with 10 hits and showing strong production from the top to the bottom of the lineup.
Megan Grant, Jordan Woolery, and Taylor Tinsley helped lead the way for the Bruins on a special Senior Day. Grant reached base in every plate appearance, Woolery delivered a two-run home run, and Tinsley earned the win in relief with a strong pitching performance. UCLA also played clean defense with zero errors, showing both
discipline and confidence on the field.
With the postseason approaching, this win was a strong reminder of why UCLA remains one of the most dangerous teams in college softball. The Bruins showed the kind of balance that matters most late in the season, combining strong pitching, clean defense, and timely production at the plate. UCLA did not just rely on one big moment; the team built pressure throughout the game and stayed composed in key situations. As the road to the postseason gets closer, performances like this give the Bruins confidence and momentum. With their experience, depth, and ability to respond under pressure, UCLA continues to look like a team capable of making a deep run.
