Oregon softball's season came to a close Friday.

They were shutout by Oklahoma state in the second game of super regionals.

Although it wasn't the way they wanted things to end, it was undeniably a massive step for the program.

In her first year, Missy Lombardi had to search campus to find players to fill out her roster.

Just a few years later, this senior-laden roster came just two games away from making the college world series.

"These guys drove our team to be better and better, and to go further and further, and to be standing at a Super Regional, not getting exactly what we wanted today, but knowing that we left everything," said head coach Missy Lombardi, "...there's nothing left to give, and I'm thankful for these two and for our other seniors because they're leaving this program better than they found it and I'm just so thankful for them."

Oregon will lose five seniors from this squad — including three that have been with Lombardi since her first season in 2019.
