Game Recap from Website (Neither school has updated website yet)
GAME ONE - UCO 2-0
GAME TWO - UCO 5-2
GAME THREE - UCO 7-6
GAME FOUR - UCO 4-1
SWO is on a four game winning streak with the last two coming against a good Adams St team. UCO split their last series with a good Midwestern State squad. Neither team has been overpowering at the plate - UCO scores 4.5 runs per game, while SWO scores just 4.1. UCO gets it done with pitching - an LSC fourth best ERA of 2.75 vs. 5.56 for SWO). UCO can really solidify their positioning in the North, while SWO could find themselves in the thick of things with a series win.
