SIU wins game one against the Trees on Sunday, 1-0. Looking for the series sweep shortly on ESPN+
SIU blows out SLU on a pair Grand Slams! Five wins in a row.
At NickEvansville this weekend.
UNI 7 Dawgs 0 with only 2 hits. The UNI pitcher had something like 15 strikeouts. UNI is 14 -1 in conference play.
It has been a rough few weeks. I sure hope we can get a win this weekend.
Finally win one 3 -2 over Bradley after losing 8 or so in a row, but Bradley wins the series.
SIU versus Murray state is currently on ESPN+. Salukis are down 4 - 0 against a good Murray team. Maddie Eberle just hasn't pitched well lately - I believe Stinson's injured so Maddie has to pitch more than she normally would.
Eberle looks exhausted out there. Murray has a very good pitcher who looks extremely comfortable on the mound. With only two pitchers, Dawgs are in trouble. MSU 4 - SIU 0.

Madi Eberle pitched much better today...1 hit shutout!! Dogs win 1‐0, helped by some great defense. Depron catches a line drive at the centerfield wall to end the game. Whew!
Softball comes back from an 11-7 deficit to win the series and beat Murray on a shot off the centerfield wall in the bottom of the 7th by Elizabeth Warwick, who was 3 for 4 today. Final score 12 - 11.
Freshman Jackie Lis hit two home runs today, including a Grand Slam to tie the game in the bottom of the 6th inning - 3 for 4 today with 8 rbis. What a great hitter she is - as a freshman sets the SIU's single season home run record. Had three home runs in a game against Missouri State last week.
Her aunt is an SIU softball Hall of Famer who holds the highest lifetime batting average for a Saluki. Her dad and grandpa played pro baseball.
Fun game to watch if you like offense. Total of 25 hits and 4 HRs. Very windy day.
Beat UIC 2 - 0 in the opening round - have to play Redturd State tomorrow. Madi Eberle's arm will fall off.
Very good chance of rain tomorrow and some chance through Sunday. the MVC Tournament could be a real mess.
SIU plays the Redturds at 11 AM. Game pushed to today due to 15 inning win by Belmont over MoSt.
Go Dawgs!
SIU beats the Redturds 5-1 and move on to the semifinals against Belmont
Dawgs whip the Turds 5 - 1 on Madi Eberle's three-hitter. Play Belmont at 5:00 p.m. for a chance to get to the championship game.
