Interesting factoid re: Softball

Opening conference series for both MU & 5 time defending champ ULL at the Dot. In game 1 of 3 the Herd scores 2 in the bottom of the sixth to surprise the Cajuns 6-5. Herd ace Bub Ferenga throws 143 pitches in a complete game performance. Cajuns take the nightcap 7-1. ULL has a NCAA best 89 series winning streak on the line when the 2 teams square off in the rubber match at 4:00 this afternoon. Break the streak!!

Herd up 10-4 bottom of 5th.

Herd takes the series. First series loss for the Cajuns since 2013.

Proud of Coach Zerkle & obviously Bub, who throws her 2nd complete game victory in as many days.

Wish we had 2 more Bub's on the staff.
That would make us legit for the league title.

From the little I know about softball, one really good one + some reliable starters/relievers can take a team pretty far.
ULL was #40 coming into this series….

Yep. One good starter can take a team far. Obviously having 2-3 good ones can win title and beyond. Easier said than done, I know.

Big series this weekend hosting Texas State. If we can win that one, we travel to Boone the next weekend, where we should be favored. But first we have Pitt tomorrow at the Dot.

 

[oldeherd]

Pitt game cancelled due to adverse weather forecast in Huntington. MU baseball game still on in Morgantown Tuesday unless the weather forecast worsens for North Central WV by Tuesday afternoon.
