CEDAR FALLS, Iowa – The Panthers, coming off of their first MVC series win, will look to extend their conference winning streak against Valparaiso this weekend.
The Panthers (18-14, 3-4) enter the series against the Crusaders (15-14, 3-5) with wins in their last two games, after losing five straight games previous to their two wins against the Missouri State Bears.
Valparaiso comes into the series after splitting two games against Southern Illinois last weekend. The Crusaders are in their first season as an MVC softball team, after playing in the Horizon League last year.
UNI has had five total matchups with Valparaiso in the past, with the Panthers owning a 5-0 all-time series advantage.
