Five in a row.... Baby steps.

7 in a row after the sweep today of that school down south!

Hokey smoke! But I hate non-conference conference games.

RE: UT softball 2016
no mention of UT softball making the ESPN top 10 plays? Came in with #2 yesterday with diving catch in left field and throw to third to double up a runner who failed to tag up thinking there would be no catch. Poor base running/coaching - btw, the game was against BG. Can't find it on the internet anywhere.

Winning streak goes to eight as the Rockets defeat Northern Illinois 2-1 in the first game of a Friday doubleheader. Game went to extra innings as UT won in 8.

That's some crazy sh!t right there. Next longest MAC streak is 5. And to win against our "rival"!

Winning streak over as officials call the game after 9, I guess on account of darkness? Doesn't seem that dark yet. Goes down as a tie. Dang.

Well, that's what the ESPN crew said, but the Rocket twitter reports the game is just suspended and will resume tomorrow.

So the streak lives on!

That runner on third headed home just a fraction of a second early or that would have been a sacrifice fly not a double play-----but when you are on a streak, the breaks seem to go your way (or is it the other way round?)

That WAS close. No hesitation by the ump and he tipped his hand a bit by moving up the third baseline. If I was the runner and saw that I'd figure I was toast.

9 in row! Rockets win suspended game against NIU 7-6 in 10 innings. Unbelievable.

One more with NIU today.

Make it 10! Rockets sweep NIU, winning the finale 8-7.

Strangely, UT is still on the outside looking in for the MAC tourney. 1 series left against Ball State.

The double header sweep of BG would have been huge had it counted in conference standings.

Does anyone know the last time softball won 10 straight games? I would bet not since their CWS days.
