Tough but exciting challenge for Miami softball this weekend in Palo Alto, CA. The RedHawks are 8-2, having won 8 straight after dropping their first 2 of the year to South Carolina and Charlotte. We play Cal(14-2) today at 3:00 local time, and then Villanova(6-9) at 5:30. Undoubtedly, the Golden Bears will be looking for some revenge after we went 2-0-1 against them in Oxford last season. On Saturday, we play Cal again (4:00 ET), and then we take on the host #15 Stanford(14-2) at 9:00. Finally, Miami plays Stanford again at 5:00 ET on Sunday. Let’s go 'Hawks! ---
