I was going to save this until Friday when the No. 1 Florida Gators softball team rolled into Oxford, but I decided it’s beyond pertinent to get this out there.
Ole Miss Softball is really good, and I mean really good.
They’re beyond fun to watch. They’re athletic. They’re tough, and they’re the best team that’s ever donned the red and blue uniform at Ole Miss.
They’re led at the top of the lineup by sophomore Elantra Cox, who is hitting .423 on the year, good for eighth best in the SEC. Cox personifies Ole Miss’ aggressive mindset as she’s 17-19 on the year in stolen bases, only behind Miranda Strother, who is in the top 25 nationally in stolen bases as she’s 25-29 on the season.
