  • How Oregon State baseball and multiple teams at UCLA adapted to new schedules, for better and for worse.

The article from ESPN discusses the travel implications for Oregon State and UCLA in various college sports for the year 2025, following conference realignment.

The article highlights specific examples of long-distance travel for both schools, emphasizing the logistical and physical toll on student-athletes due to these changes.
