In keeping with the Holiday Season, I would like to present a series called "The 12 Days of Duckmas", counting down 12 of the best moments from Oregon Duck Athletics in 2008. This isn't meant to be a comprehensive list by any means and is certainly not in order of importance.

the return of Oregon Ducks Baseball

Oregon Ducks Baseball returned this year in a big way with a big name coach, the construction of a new baseball park near Autzen Stadium, and some fun uniforms to boot. Mel Krause (pictured above), former Oregon Baseball Coach, was instrumental in returning the program to the University after a 28 year absence. Sadly, Mel Krause wouldn't see the fruits of his labor as he passed away back in June.

With some great facilities, community backing and a fun recruiting class, the Oregon Ducks baseball team should be fun to watch
