Kentucky Softball Sweeps Missouri In SEC Opener

The Kentucky softball team was victorious against their first SEC opponent, winning all three games in their series versus Missouri. With their wins this weekend, Kentucky is undefeated in SEC play and currently on a seven game win streak.
“We’ve had a lot of people come up in big moments, so it’s not just one person or two people, we’ve had a lot of people. So, very hopeful coming in (to SEC play) and it doesn’t matter who’s coming up to bat or who’s on the mound, we have a lot of confidence they can get it done because they did it in the entire preseason,” said head coach Rachel Lawson after the series win.
Home Sweet Home
After 20 games on the road to start the season, Kentucky finally had their home opener on Friday. It was well worth the wait as almost 900 fans filled John Cropp Stadium to watch their Wildcats beat the Missouri Tigers 6-4 to open up SEC play.
