Sycs upset 1st place UNI. If SIU can beat Belmont, they'll play Sycs tomorrow for the championship. We swept Ind. St. early this year.
Can Eberle's arm holdout?
Dawgs tie it in the 5th at 2
Salukis with a 3-2 lead heading to the 7th
Walk-off homer in the 7th for Warwick and SIU heads to the Championship vs Indiana State tomorrow!
Wow what a game! If you weren't there, you missed a good one on a beautiful night for a ball game. Belmont's D bit them in the ass, helping us, along with some timely hitting, to take the lead, and the Dawgs never quit.
Hannah Hockerman came in and pitched 3 no-run innings, giving up only one hit. Madi Eberle came back in in the 7th (not sure I agree with that call since Hockerman had been very good) and gave up a run to tie it. First batter up, first team all MVC Elizabeth Warwick and our best hitter average wise, hits a home run over the right field wall to walk it off! Fans went nuts.
I think we can win it all. Insu St shot their wad beating the best team in the conference and regular season champion by a mile...UNI. (I think they will get an at-large bid..but the little guys often get screwed of course ) We swept the Sycs 3 straight earlier this year. Hopefully Madi's arm will recover during the night.
1PM tomorrow. On espunplus - 50% chance of thunderstorms tomorrow morning.
This might be the first women's softball game I've watched on TV.
Would be incredible if the women were to pull this off after the terrible April they had. Looking at the standings, though, I'd think Indiana State would be the favorite.
Salukis tie it at 9 in the 6th!
Salukis lose 11-9. Face Baylor tomorrow at 4:30 in an elimination game
Really liked our offensive play yesterday - defense was a bit disappointing because we gave them a few runs. I believe this game will be on 103.5 with Mike Trude for anyone near the Carbondale area.
Salukis were down 9-2 but are charging back down 9-8 in the 7th
Salukis tie it with 2 outs in 7th!
Heck of a game - these gals do NOT quit. Winning run on in the 8th.
Baylor with 4 in the 9th so far
