Softball Beats #6 OSU Cowgirls 5-1

[UNTLifer]

Great performances all around.  Great to see Savage work through some early troubles and settle in and then Peters came in for a two inning, slam-the-door save.  Great defense, timely hitting, good base running.  Just an all around great game by these young ladies.

 

EDIT: Oh, and we did this against OSU's All-American pitcher Kelly Maxwell.  Don't know much about her?  Here's some light reading.

Hip Hip Hooray!  We are finally starting to see some of the DeLong recruits producing their fair share.  I was very encouraged by this win.  The team acted very inspired.

Listened to the game online .. announcer from Okie State did a fine job recognizing players, giving NT credit, even stating the attendance was clearly higher than recognized at the gates.   If you haven't seen the uploads on twitter, go check them out.   Great to see the girls get a great win.   I thought we were going to beat UT several weeks back as well.  time to step up in conf. play.  Nice to see multiple sports competing at the end of the season for titles.

@Harry What do the ladies have to do to get their picture on top for a day? They beat a top-6-ranked team 💚

Again, please explain.  This is his fifth year here.  Last year and the year prior were our most successful based upon wins and advancing in the post season.  99% of last year's players are the top producers this year as well.  I am lost by your comment.

Great win. Do they play UTSA in San Antonio?

The last homestand of the year is this weekend vs. the Lady MUTS and we need a sweep.

To win outright (I think), we need to sweep and have Charlotte win 2 of 3. If we tie with UAB, they have the head-to-head advantage. Still a little unclear since UAB and MTSU will have one less game.
