HOW IT HAPPENED

USC outshot Oregon, 36-24, which included a big 10-3 edge in the third quarter when the Trojans pulled away with a 4-1 frame. The Ducks got to more ground balls by just one, 13-12, but the Women of Troy dominated the center circle with a big 22-5 advantage in draw controls. Both teams totaled 11 turnovers a piece.
Simmons scored the first goal of the game to put Oregon on the board, but Regan answered almost immediately to get a goal from free position. The Ducks went in front again, but Mulry scored back-to-back goals before Bunting took a feed from Regan to score a third straight USC goal to make it 4-2 for the Trojans after the opening frame.
The USC run ballooned to a 6-0 burst when May, Regan, and Newton scored goals in the first five minutes of the second quarter to make it 7-2, but Oregon fought back and got the next three goals to stay within striking distance. May—from free position with under two minutes to play—scored one more to make it 8-5 for the Trojans at the half.
Like they did in the second quarter, the Trojans scored the first three of the third—with goals from Mulry, Robinson, and Regan—to claim an 11-5 lead. Fortin scored one to stem the tide, but Mulry had the last goal of the third quarter to send the teams to the fourth with a 12-6 USC lead on the board.
Newton took a pass from Barron to score the first goal of the fourth and then Gerrity scored from free position (5:20) before Newton did it again off a feed from Bunting to push USC ahead, 15-7. With under two minutes to play, the Ducks won several late draws and scored three goals in 46 seconds to draw within five, 15-10, but the Women of Troy held off the late Duck charge to close out the five-goal win.
