[UNTLifer]

That's a great win for our first year ladies. Lafayette is going to be tough.

Off the Muts board.

LAFAYETTE, La. – No. 5 seed North Texas made its Sun Belt Conference Softball Championships debut a good one Thursday, as the Mean Green took a 2-0 win over No. 4 Western Kentucky at Lady Cajun Park.

NT shortstop Brittiny Chapman went 2-for-3 with an RBI, while Katy Maxey hurled a complete-game shutout as the Mean Green picked up their third win over WKU this year.

With the win, NT (22-55) will face top-seed Louisiana-Lafayette at 6:30 p.m. Thursday night. WKU (35-22) will face the loser of this afternoon’s Middle Tennessee-Florida International game at 11 a.m. Friday.

Maxey was in complete control, scattering six hits while striking out one and only walking one. WKU pitcher Adrienne Lathrop (16-9) pitched well despite getting the defeat. The right-hander allowed only six hits and one earned run.

NT jumped ahead in the fifth when Chapman got a two-out, infield single and added the final run on a WKU error in the sixth.

NORTH TEXAS INTERIM HEAD COACH ANGIE SCHARNHORST

“I think it was great that we went out and won our first-ever Sun Belt Tournament game. It gives us momentum going into tonight’s game.

“Overall, our team hit very well, we took care of the situation hitting. Katy Maxey pitched a great game, and our defense played behind her 100 percent.”

We didn't have much luck against UL-Lafayette earlier this season. We dropped all 4 games against them in late April here in Denton...

April 24th - L 0-3, L 1-3

April 25th - L 0-1, L 3-9

Sounds like all but the last one were close. Hopefully, we can get some tourney magic in our favor...

GO MEAN GREEN SOFTBALL!!!

The game has been delayed by rain and will resume tomorrow morning, Friday April 14, at 10 am. Currently, our ladies are behind 2-0 in the top of the fourth. Hopefully, they can pull an upset!

Link to live stats. Not good right now for the ladies down 5-0 in bottom of 5th against ULL.

Hopefully they can win to stay in game later today.

[Greenblood94]

The Lady Eagles lost to UL-L, 7-0, in the game completed today due to rain yesterday. The Lady Eagles will play 6th-seed New Mexico State in the consolation bracket next. They can still win the title, it would just take five straight wins to do it.

Also, congratulations to Stephanie Cranmer and Katy Maxey for making the All-Sun Belt team! Cranmer, an outfielder, was named to the first team, while Maxey, a designated hitter, garnered second-team honors. Way to go, ladies!
