JMV do you think we will see brooke again at all in this tourny. Her ribs seemed to give her a lot of problems yesterday and forced her to work out of some bad situations. I think Bobbit and Kershberg can handle it, what do you think?
With the game on the line I at least try Mitchell (she really is a gamer) and the team feeds off of her. Brooke is also experience and a big game pitcher. Bobbitt on the other hand is 18-1 and Kershberg has looked decent in limited action this season. However I do believe coach Lotief will pitch Bobbitt and / or Kershberg tonight and hope to get to championship sunday with Brooke getting to rest and staying out of the heat. We can win three in a row, with Brooke 100% we would be undefeated right now. Never underestimated these girls with there backs against the walls.Originally Posted by Clutch0364
Lady Cajuns already down 1-0 in the top of the first inning, Oregon has bases loaded with 2 outs. Brooke Mitchell and Heather Bobbit were supposed to get a rest tonight but both are already up in the bullpen as Kerschberg(?) is having control problems.
3-1 Ducks was the last I heard, anyone know the final?
DaddyCajun!
Lady Cajuns end the season with a 3-1 loss to Oregon tonight. Kirchberg went the distance for the Lady Cajuns while Oregon's Cook went all 7 innings only facing 2 batters over the minimun. The Lady Cajuns couldn't make up for a rocky first inning which consisted of 2 consecutive walks and then a 2-run double. A sacrifice fly also plated a run in the first inning for the Ducks. Oh well, great season once again for the Lady Cajuns and with Heather Bobbitt back we should have another good one next year. Go Cajuns.
Our Ladys went out as Champions! Nothing to feel bad about! Love ya Lady Cajuns! Thanks for the wonderful season!
NORMAN, Okla. - The 2005 college softball season came to an end for Louisiana's Ragin Cajuns, after dropping two consecutive games in day two of the NCAA Region 14 Tournament in Norman, Okla., on Saturday.
In a winner's bracket contest to start the day, the third-seeded Cajuns fell to the host team, and top-seeded Oklahoma Sooners, 6-3, before being eliminated by the No. 2-seeded Oregon Ducks, 3-1.
"This team has a lot of character, which is why it hurts so bad right now," said co-head coach Michael Lotief. "They wanted it so bad, but it just didn't happen."
In the opener, Oklahoma jumped on Cajun starter Heather Bobbitt for three runs in the opening frame, taking advantage of an infield single and a walk, to take a quick 3-0 lead.
Bobbitt settled in however, and started to put up goose eggs, allowing her team the opportunity to come back.
The Cajuns took advantage of that opportunity in the bottom half of the fifth, when with two outs, Codi Runyan and Tiffany Hebert drew back-to-back walks off of Sooner starter Kami Keiter, before Jill Robertson tied the game at three with a three-run homer over the left-field fence.
"I just had a feeling that I was going to do something," said Robertson. "I wasn't trying to hit a home run, but I just wanted to be at the plate and do something positive in that situation."
The Cajun momentum was short-lived however, and the Sooners answered with two unearned runs in the top of the sixth, as Allison Horne, hitting for Keiter, delivered a two-out, two-run double, to give Oklahoma the lead back, 5-3.
The rest of the day
