Michigan softball 'itching' to reclaim Big Ten title

ANN ARBOR -- Junior Faith Canfield doesn't need to be reminded of the dissatisfied feeling in the locker room after Michigan's softball team failed to win the Big Ten title last season for the first time in 10 years.

The 15th-ranked Wolverines (38-7, 13-1) are in a good position to reclaim the regular season championship this season, holding a slim lead over Indiana (23-25, 15-2) and Minnesota (29-14, 12-3) with seven conference games remaining. Although this weekend's road series against the Hoosiers wont' decide the title, it will likely have major implications in the final standings.
