No. 22 Baylor softball plunges forward with brutal schedule, Mary Nutter Classic
By Michael Haag | Sports Editor
No. 22 Baylor softball is walking into the Mary Nutter Classic as arguably the most tested program in the country.
Sitting on that pedestal is the result of opening the season with two-straight series against ranked opponents — one of them being versus the No. 2 team in the country. Stout competition isn’t going away any time soon, as the Bears are set to play five games across three days in the Mary Nutter Classic in Palm Springs, Calif.
This should be of no surprise, but @BaylorSoftball has the No. 1 toughest schedule in all of #NCAA Division I through Feb. 20, according to @masseyratings.
