I put the phone down and looked up when Drover nation started getting rowdy and the dugout was chanting “YOU WISH YOU WERE A DROVER” and said to myself ‘yup, this is why I got into covering NAIA softball’ and I’m not going anywhere any time soon folks

Maybe recency bias, but this is the best NAIA softball game I’ve watch in person. The action, the fans, the dugouts, everything. Just beautiful y’all.

USAO scores four in the fourth inning to win their second game in Columbus over Jessup 5-4. Melea McMurtrey, Macenzie Ruth, & Sophie Williams have 3 hit nights for the Drovers.

OLLU defeats the Owls 3-0 behind a 10 k shutout from Cassandra Valdez!
