Correct, I was referring to how close the left fielder was to catching this Ausha Moore homerun which would have ended the game. From the stands I had originally thought she made the catch.

Here's how close we were to getting run ruled yesterday in five innings. Instead we played five more.

After seeing our body language on the field while USF put up their second five-run frame of the day in the fifth, I was convinced we would be run ruled. So kudos to the team for getting back into it, Lovelace was rocking! Just hate how we seem to always fall behind first. We need to get out in front of teams more - this was even a thing against the lowly teams of our league like UTSA, Memphis, and Tulsa.

It'll realistically be our last shot to take over second place. I don't see UTSA helping us out with any wins at South Florida next weekend. I wasn't aware of the tournament format change this year so the third seed isn't as bad. Last year the bottom 8 teams had to play Day 1. This year it's only the bottom 6. So we'd only have to win three games to win the conference title if we finished third.

According to her bio she didn't appear at OSU in 2022, I would think she'd be eligible for another year?

Agreed, these were the last ladies on the NCAA Tournament team. Hopefully we can make it again this year to give this new class the experience.

Tomorrow's game moved up to 5pm. 😒

They should have gotten onto each other about all those missed free throws in the games they lost.

Really hope the series remains as is. Trying to make it to all 3. Bringing the vuvuzela!

Nice find! And agreed!

Yep, hope they are able to find fan-friendly times to play three games. USF already has a tie with Wichita from a game that could not finish before USF's cut-off travel time. Unbelievable - three of our four conference home series have been adjusted due to weather. Plus the UT Arlington tournament.

The games this weekend are more important anyway. Let's go sweep South Florida.

Well what do you know. 😏 https://x.com/American_Conf/status/1914393702149083259?t=ycMAzMMcNbPq7wlrrxuFag&s=19

No further help Saturday as the top three teams in the conference all collect sweeps. The winner of this weekend's final home series against South Florida will be in at least second place with a double bye going into the last weeked of the regular season.

I heard Youmans say on the broadcast that Bearclaw and Simon were the first players we've had win back-to-back conference POTW awards since 2005. I think Conley made an argument to be the third consecutive. I think she ended up with 2 HR and 8 RBI this series.
