UE Softball enters final week of preseason

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Just seven days remain until the University of Evansville softball team will open the 2017 season at the Plainsman Invite in Auburn, Okla.

Evansville made one of the top ten turnarounds in the NCAA last season, improving their season win tally by 14. This year, a team that features nine seniors is ready to make its move. Head coach Mat Mundell scheduled a competitive non-conference slate that will see the Purple Aces take on three of the top six teams in the preseason rankings.

In the opening week, UE is set to face second-ranked Auburn.
