The tourney has been pushed back a full day with the Lopers still facing the host Panthers (9-9) and Augustana (2-4) on Saturday but now playing NAIA Cottey College, Mo. (7-6) and No. 9 Central Oklahoma (8-3) on Sunday. The Blue & Gold was supposed to play Minnesota-Crookston and NAIA Evangel (Mo.).
Kearney super senior Avery Wood (.435) and Colorado sophomore Jaiden Harteker (.346) are currently leading the team in batting average with Wood (three), Blair senior Katie Gosker (five) and Lincoln junior Carly Dembowski (three) combining for 11 dingers and 32 RBI’s. In the circle, California sophomore Sydney Thomason has three wins and 26 K’s in 30.2 innings.
