That could be very, very detrimental going into the MAC tourney
Talyor Turner pitching today.
Won 4-2 today…finish out regular season at CMU this Saturday / Sunday.
I believe Miami will host the MAC Tournament.
That would be great if Miami does host. Normally, it’s at Firestone stadium in Akron. I checked the MAC site. It doesn’t look too promising on news from the MAC
Looks like it’s the highest seed campus site so it should be us:
Looks like they decided to take the weekend off after clinching the MAC earlier this week.
Yep. Def a meh day at the yard. Better win tomorrow.
Honestly doesn’t really matter since they weren’t getting an at-large anyway. Would like a win tomorrow to have at least a little momentum heading into the MAC Tournament.
Big area of concern: Courtney Vierstra - today’s birthday girl - left the first game of the Ball State series with an injury. She didn’t pitch again until game one of the CMU series and she got lit up in her 2.2 innings before coming out of the game. I think it’s going to be a real struggle if we don’t have her at full strength in the MAC tournament. And it would be very tough going into an NCAA Regional without her being healthy. Anybody have any inside information about her injury and/or her prospects of returning healthy for this weekend?
You beat me to it…I was going to ask the same.
First game is Thursday 5/12 against BG at 3:30 PM. Top 4 teams make the conference tournament and it is double elimination.
Corrected link.
Why do only 4 teams make the tournament?
Championship game going on the same time graduation is taking place at Yeager.
Yager Commencement is at 10:30am, softball championship 3pm, Arts and Sciences in Millett at 4pm.
Is this streaming anywhere?
Yes:
Game just started…Brianna Pratt is starting for Miami.
Miami had no hits going into the bottom of the fifth, but a couple homers have made it 3-0.
Strange to hear Bake call a softball game, but I like it! 4-1 Miami top 7.
Miami wins! 4-1 final. #3 CMU beat #2 OU 7-1 this afternoon. We’ll play the Chips tomorrow at 3:30.
This might be a dumb question, but who is Randy Hollowell? How is he the color commentator for every sport? I just looked him up to see what his deal is and apparently he works in the university IT department. Did he just volunteer one day and someone said “Sure”?
I followed the game on live stats. Any mention of Courtney on the broadcast?
