Baseball & Softball
With the weather finally looking like less of a factor, the Spires Baseball and Softball seasons are getting underway in full.
Last week, the USM baseball team had its March 2 home match-up with Morningside College pushed back two days and relocated due to weather. The Spires lost the make-up game 18-5 on March 4.
Over the weekend, the Spires dropped all four games of Saturday and Sunday doubleheaders to William Woods University.
The Spires will next travel to Northwood University for two double-headers, one at 1 p.m. Friday, March 12, and the second at 1 p.m. Saturday, March 13.
The baseball team is currently 0-7 overall on the year. Kansas Collegiate Athletic Conference play kicks off later this month.
Thanks to the weather, the Lady Spires Softball team is still waiting to play its first game. That opportunity comes Wednesday, March 10, with a home doubleheader against Benedictine College. The teams take the field at 2 p.m.
