Play 2 on Friday - Army at 4:00 on FloSoftball #25 Ohio State at 8:00 on FloSoftball Quote
Aaron Posted February 6 Posted February 6 Please no complaints if softball has a rebuilding year after the three of the best seasons in program history where they made three straight NCAA Tournaments after just seven in first 50 yrs before that. They lost a lot and are very young and could well have growing pains with only Avery Parker and Aly VanBrandt returning as major contributors. Also, one game and Florida Atlantic has been elite the last two years. Hopefully this goes well overall, but definitely could be a slight step back from what team has been recently.

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted February 7 Author Posted February 7 Didn't see this one coming. Hoosiers pound #25 O$U 12-3 for their second win of the season. 13 hits for the women led by Hannah Haberstroh with 3 and 4 others with 2 each. Haberstroh and Alex Cooper each with 3 RBI. We were aided by 4 Buckeye errors that contributed to 4 of our 12. Taylor Hess pitched the entire 5-inning run shortened game giving up 8 hits but didn't walk anyone. Play 2 more today before returning to Bloomington. Next weekend they'll be in Tempe, AZ for 5-games in the Littlewood Invitational.

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted February 7 Author Posted February 7 Great opening weekend going 4-1 finishing with a 10-0 shutout of Stonehill. Live Stat link didn't work so don't have any details. Next weekend they'll be in Tempe, AZ for 5-games in the Littlewood Invitational. Pagoda, taco corp and OliviaPope40 3 Quote
Aaron Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Hopefully Florida Atlantic is just that good again. Clearly IU is not a national championship team (which we already knew), but beating Ohio State shows this could be a tourney squad again. The win over the Buckeyes is an extreme positive after the negative against FAU. The other two are must dominates which they did, but says very little about ceiling or floor. Quote
