Re: 2017 OSU Softball
In their first game of the Big Ten Tournament, the Buckeyes earned a 3-2 victory over Wisconsin in the Quarterfinals. Two runs for the Buckeyes scored on an error in the 2nd inning, and Anna Kirk drove in the winning run later in the inning. Shelby Hursh went all 7 innings on the mound, allowing 2 runs (both earned) on 4 hits and piling up a massive strike out total of 10.
The 3rd seeded Buckeyes will take on the 7th seeded Michigan State Spartans in the Semifinal tomorrow at 3:30pm.

Re: 2017 OSU Softball
Saturday was a busy day for the Buckeyes, in the Big Ten Semifinals they defeated Michigan State 4-3. But in the Championship round, OSU was no match for an unreal Minnesota team as they defeated the Buckeyes 6-0. Ohio State will have to wait and see what their matchup is in the NCAA Tournament.

Ohio State 4 Illinois 3 (Softball)
The Buckeyes (35-15) jumped out to a 4-0 lead and then once again held on for dear life to post the win and move into the Big Ten Championship game.
For Michigan State(31-22) it was business as usual in the tourney as they fell behind early, but this time luck ran out as they could not overcome the four run Buckeye lead.
Emily Clark and Lilli Piper each hit two run bombs for the Buckeyes.
Lea Foerster,Kaitlyn Eveland and Ebonee Echols each had RBI for the Spartans.

Re: 2017 OSU Softball
Minnesota 6 Ohio State 0 (Softball)
Minnesota (54-3) showed just how far apart they are from anyone in the Big Ten, with their white washing of the Buckeyes(35-16).
The Buckeyes killed themselves by walking way to many Gophers hitters. 15 total walks by three Buckeye pitchers all but handed the win to Minnesota. Shelby McCombs, who hit 71 on the radar gun, walked 8 in just 4 2/3 innings. Shelby Hursh walked 6 in just 1 2.3 innings. She topped out at 69 on the Radar gun. Morgan Ray walked just 1 in one inning of work. She hit 69 on the radar game gun.
Minnesota had one homer run by,Sydney Dwyer (2 hits 2 RBI)
Sam Macken had 3 RBI.
MaKenna Partain had 1 RBI
Minnesota had just 6 hits to go with the 15 walks.
Ohio State potent offense had just 2 hits, while striking out 12 times.

The Buckeyes will be competing in the Knoxville Regional, along with Tennessee, South Carolina Upstate and Longwood. OSU's first game will be against South Carolina Upstate on Friday at 4:30pm. Their second game will be on Saturday where they will either play Tennessee or Longwood.

Re: 2017 OSU Softball
Not to change subjects, but MAN! Did Minnesota get a big ole middle finger from the committee. Ranked #2 or #3 and no home game or seating.

Re: 2017 OSU Softball
The Buckeyes NCAA Tournament in the regionals have ended in a bit of disappointment after they fall to Longwood 3-1 on Saturday. After a successful regular season, the Buckeyes lose both of their regional games to mid-major opponents that have effectively ended their season.

Re: 2017 OSU Softball
I maybe wrong 2009. I think all of the Big Tens team are gone now. Looks like the committee had it right in not giving the Big Ten any seating's.

Re: 2017 OSU Softball
You are correct 1987, all Big Ten teams have been eliminated. It's so hard to judge teams up north. Every team that is remaining is either from the South or the West.

Re: 2017 OSU Softball
I don't know what OSU or the rest of the Big Ten brings back next year. But I do know Minnesota loses Sarah Gronawagon at pitcher and they're #1 hitter so they will have nothing next year. Michigan will need 2 pitchers and they will need someone to step to the plate to be a hitter. You never know it could be a big year for several teams.

Re: 2017 OSU Softball
Ohio State is losing their #1 pitcher, starting outfielder, and a utility player, the rest of the team returns.
