Friday, November 2nd
Oregon Ducks women’s soccer team beat the Oregon State Beavers last Friday 2-0 on their home turf in Eugene, Oregon. This is the first time in two years that the Ducks have won against the Beavers. Marissa Everett scored both of the goals for the Ducks during this game. It was a huge overall win for the Ducks, they broke a nine-year losing streak and lifted Oregon women’s soccer to its best record in a decade with 9-9-1 overall. We are proud of the Ducks for this big win!

Saturday, November 3rd
The University of Hawaii, unfortunately, lost to Utah State 56 to 17 Saturday, November 3rd at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu, Hawaii. UH quarterback Cole McDonald became the sixth quarterback in program history to reach the mark of 331 yards passing, two touchdowns, and eclipsed 3,000 yards on the season. McDonald threw both of his touchdowns in the third quarter. USU’s rushers Darwin Thompson and Gerold Bright each got three touchdowns defeating the University of Hawaii. We hope to see Hawaii come back with a win November 17th after a bye week.
Sunday, November 4th
Sunday was an exciting day on our turf. Two of our favorite NFL teams won their home games and we couldn’t be more proud. The Vikings beat the Lions 24 to 9 with the power of their defense. The Lions got three field goals, a fumble recovery, and an interception during the game but that was about it for them. The Vikings take on the Bears on November 18th, we are excited to see what the game entails.
The Saints took the W against the Rams 45 to 35. The Rams have been undefeated until their loss this Sunday, making it a huge win for the Saints. Saints quarterback Drew Brees threw four touchdown passes and 346 yards, running back Alvin Kamara had three touchdowns and wide receiver Michael Thomas caught a 72-yard touchdown that locked in their win. This was an exciting game to watch and we can’t wait to see the Saints play the Cincinnati Bengels next weekend. Will the Saints keep up this winning streak?
