How about finally upgrading the field to the status of a decent HS infrastructure? Stands that are up to code, a concession stand, etc?

If you're going to email about such things, then send a check too.

Ohio softball has won 5 of its last 6 and is 11-7. The one loss in that span was in extra innings and wins include victories over Indiana and Texas Tech. Home opener is Wednesday against Wright State.

Nothing much posted on softball, but Ohio finished the regular season strong, winning seven of its final nine MAC games, after a stretch of some struggles and took the #3 seed for the MAC Tournament, which begins today. Ohio has had the best pitching in the league, so that always gives them a chance. The offense has been spotty. Ohio faces #6 Akron at 6 today. The tournament is simple double-elimination and runs through Saturday.

Ohio reached the title game with a 2-1 win against Northern Illinois but lost 3-0 to Miami, the second time in the tournament the RedHawks shut them out.

The Bobcats opened with a 3-1 win over Akron. Madison Claytor had a two-run double in the 6th.

Then probably was the biggest game of the tournament, with Miami beating Ohio 3-0 in 15 innings. Ohio managed 4 hits in 46 at-bats. Even so, Ohio had its chances. It left the bases loaded in the 13th. Miami wasn't much better until the 15th. That dropped the Bobcats into the losers' bracket and the RedHawks followed with a win over NIU to get to the title game.

Ohio stayed alive with an 8-5 win in an extra inning against Western Michigan. Ohio trailed 2-0 until getting a run in the 5th to finally end their scoreless drought and then scored 4 in the top of the seventh to take the lead, only for the Broncos to tie it in the bottom of the 7th. Ohio won it with 3 more runs in the 8th. Mikayla Cooper had 4 RBIs and Claytor had 2.

Then Friday night, the Bobcats beat top-seeded Kent State 2-1. Mikayla Cooper's 2-run homer in the 1st held up.

This morning, Ohio beat NIU 3-1 to get to the championship game. Dorsey threw a 2-hitter with 13 strikeouts, and Morgan Geno drove in 2 runs.

Miami got a 1st-inning run and 2 in the 5th. The Bobcats did not score on Miami and had just 8 hits in 22 innings in the 2 games. Ohio needed to beat Miami twice.

It was a good run, and Ohio played well at the end of the year. Dorsey came back from sitting out most of last year with an injury and broke her own school record for strikeouts. Through yesterday, she was 2nd in the nation with 319 on the year.

Ohio really only had two seniors, and both were somewhat part time. Sloan Walker started 36 of 60 games, and Amanda Dalton started 37 games. Dorsey was given a medical redshirt for last season and is eligible to return for next year. The Bobcats should be very good again next season with hopefully an improved offense.

Expecting big big things for Ohio Softball next year.
