Charlotte ties it up at 5 heading to the sixth inning. 
 

And the MUTS score to take a 6-5 lead heading to the bottom of the 6th.

MUTS win 6-5. 
 

We face them in a single game championship tomorrow at noon 

[Side.Show.Joe]

I hope the girls jump on them early and crushes MT.  

[Matt from A700]

Of course we'll play MTSU.

Second time in this conference tournament, and fifth time in a week. 3-for-4 so far, but every game has been close. I'm nervous for this one...

[Venson]

MTSU has a very young team. They will be a force in CUSA going forward. However, we need to leave CUSA as Champs. My nerves will be shot if this is a close game. Hopefully we can jump on them early. We need to shut down Echols. Whenever she reaches, she seems to have a better than average chance of scoring. Of course Echols is from Texas.

A double elimination tournament should not be a single game championship.  Since NT has not lost, MUTS should have to beat us twice.

MTSU strikes first, 1-0. Ashley having to work. 56 pitches through 3.

MTSU's pitcher only needed 19 to get through two.

Just so I understand this:

They can beat us today, once, and claim a title? But we have to beat them today, for the second time this tournament, to claim a title?

EDIT: This is confirmed as correct.

1-1 ... tied it up:  Walk, sac bunt, single. 

[El Paso Eagle]

However this ends, and not sure how the portal works for softball; we have to get some hitters on this team.

[Venson]

We should have not walked Behabetz. She is an easy out. Down 2-1 with bases loaded.

[Matt from A700]

Wagoner struggling and lets MTSU taking the lead after Childers was taken out with 30 pitches.

Judy's embarrassed that every conference championship this year in CUSA has been won by a departing school except in women's basketball.

[UNTLifer]

Great catch by Cobbs to get us out of the inning. Time for another comeback. 
 

FYI: I hate the full artificial turf fields.

Yeah, that is stupid. They should have to at least beat us twice.

[UNTLifer]

BOOM!  
 

Simon goes deep to tie it up.

That was a no doubter. 
 

 

[Matt from A700]

Don't hit anything towards the foul poles because the CBSSN cameras are gonna run into the press box windows.

[Matt from A700]

So many damn popups.

[UNTLifer]

Bunting with two outs and nobody on is a give up.  That is a horrible decision. 

[Venson]

The officials don't want us to win. Every call has gone against us.
