The softball team is now 13-3 on the season.

Bison went up 4-0, UNI tied, Bison said bitch, please, and plopped down 8 runs in the bottom of the 6th inning.

You have a future in play-by-play!

This is going to be another special season, isn't it?

Sure looks that way. Hopefully the weather cooperates and we can get some good weather home games in.

I see the Bison have 1 vote in the ESPN softball poll, congrats to them, they rank the top 25 and then there is only 8 other teams with votes. It is great recognition but also means they are not sneaking up on anyone either. Not sure if Bison have been mentioned in top 25 poll before???

Now that there is some funny poop!

Wish we had video or audio of the Purdue game. It's the top of the 6th and Menke has faced 15 batters and struck out 10 of them. Now if the Bison hitters could do something in this game...

top of 6, 0-0

[HerdBot]

#NDSUBison and Purdue scoreless headed to T7th #UTInvitational #SummitSB #d1sball

[Hammersmith]

If the Bison win this, it will be in extra innings. Bottom of the 7th, still scoreless.

[HerdBot]

Bottom of the 7th, 0-0. Top of the Boiler order due up. Hughes, Koorsen, Burkhardt look to get the offense rolling! #boilerup

[Hammersmith]

Extra softball. Krista has faced 21 batters so far.

[HerdBot]

Purdue tweets...
Lots of contact & a really close play at first base, but still scoreless heading to the 8th. International tie breaker is invoked

[HerdBot]

#NDSUBison & Purdue scoreless headed into the 8th inning.. P Krista Menke w/no-hitter, 11 Ks #UTInvitational #SummitSB #d1sball

[Hammersmith]

Bison score top of the 8th. 1-0 NDSU w/ 2 outs.

Add another. 2-0 Bison.

And another. 3-0 Bison.

[Hammersmith]

Going to the bottom of the 8th with the Bison up 3-0. A runner will be placed on 2nd to start the inning.

#NDSUBison 3, Purdue 0 T8th Alyssa Reina w/2-out single to knock in Cheyenne Garcia #UTInvitational #SummitSB #d1sball

[Hammersmith]

1 out.

2 out.

Strike out to end the game. Fitting.

Bison win 3-0.

[Hammersmith]

Krista Menke with an 8-inning no hitter. 24 batters faced, 12 strikeouts, 1 walk(that was picked off by the catcher). 85 strikes on 116 pitches.

The only two Purdue players to make it on base were the walk and the tiebreaker.

If Krista doesn't get Summit pitcher of the week, there's no justice. (Of course, the PiOW has been awarded 4 times this year and Krista's won two of them already - including last week's.)



Of the 8 weekly Summit awards given this season, the Bison have won 5 of them. Menke(2), Sobrero, Reina, and Garcia.

Only if your tv provider has the SEC network. In other words, Midco good, Cableone bad.



And Krista having a tough time with the #11/16 Vols. The Vols almost got around the order and scored 3 while doing it(including a leadoff HR).

0-3 Tenn, top of 2nd

[Hammersmith]

Ouch, ouch, ouch.

2-14 Tenn, going to top of 5th.

Menke was pulled in the 2nd, then put back in in the 4th.
