Oregon State University Women's Softball


Wayne and I flew 997 down to Corvallis to watch the softball Civil War match between the women of Oregon State University and the University of Oregon.

Because we aren't alumni of either school, we can go to their games and root for good plays on either side. After the opening pitch and the National Anthem, the members of each team are introduced. The women on the Oregon State team have a unique way of acknowledging each other down the line.



Then it's game on. We had beautiful warm weather for all three games. I guess with every war there has to be a winner and a loser. For this "friendly" one, OSU came out with no wins and UO three, making them the series overall winner.


In two weeks we'll do it all over again, but in Eugene at the University of Oregon. We're excited about seeing their brand new Jane Sanders Stadium. Hopefully Mother Nature will cooperate so we can fly 997 there as well. If not, we'll fly down the freeway but at a much more reasonable speed. -- Margy

  1. It certainly was a fine day weather wise! I wonder why they have these different greetings? Is it just for fun?
    Hope you have a great day.

    1. I don't know but I think you are right, please team building. They each have a music clip that plays when they come up to bat. I am sure they picked those to match their personality. - Margy
