Wednesday evening we're scheduled to play the twice rained out doubleheader with PUke.  Right now looks like rain throughout the day in Bloomington until 4:00 and then beginning to clear.  Maybe third times the charm and we'll actually get the games in.

Win streak stretches to 7 but it took 4 runs in the 7th to pull it off courtesy of a Cooper grand slam!!  And that was her second HR of the game hitting a solo shot in the 3rd.  We only had 3 hits in the entire game.  Kleiman started and went 5 innings and Montgomery closed it out.  

Tomorrow night we'll hopefully get in the twice rain delayed doubleheader with PUke.  First game scheduled to start 5:00.
