Tech’s softball team is making history and is currently 5-1 in conference play. This is the best start to a conference season in the program’s history.
The Lady Techsters defeated the University of Southern Mississippi in a 3-0 series sweep March 18-19 at the Lady Eagles Softball Complex in Hattiesburg.
Head coach Mark Montgomery said the team showed potential over the weekend’s series and stayed consistent through all the games.
“Well, you know, it was a step forward for sure for the program,” he said. “We had looked good on the opening weekend against Charlotte, winning two by run rule, but then kind of not playing well the last game and letting it get away from us.
