The LSU softball team entered SEC play as the hottest squad in America, but things have cooled off quite a bit since then.
After dropping a series last weekend to Ole Miss, the Tigers were handed another series loss by Missouri on Saturday with a 3-2 win. Mizzou won Friday’s Game 1 10-9.
LSU had a nice start in this game with [autotag]Ali Newland[/autotag] and [autotag]McKenzie Redoutey[/autotag] hitting solo shots in the first and second innings to give the team an early 2-0 lead.
But Missouri retook the lead with a trio of runs in the third inning, and LSU couldn’t manage any more runs the rest of the game as it suffered yet another disappointing defeat.
Now, coach Beth Torina’s team will look to avoid the sweep in Sunday’s Game 3, which is set for 1 p.m. CT.
