Cami Henry shutout Northern Kentucky today on 4 hits as 'Cats win 5 - 0. Still no Shellmyer though. Cami struck out nine. Assume we'll see Danielle tomorrow vs. Louisville.

A bit delayed but the Cats split a DH yesterday. Lost to Toledo in the first game. The second game was much better as NU won 11-1 with Danielle Williams pitching a complete game. She gave up no earned runs. Struck out 6 and gave up 5 hits. So it looks as though DW is getting back on track as she has pitched well her last few times out whether she is starting or coming in to close out a game as a relief pitcher. That should bode well for NU this season.
DW and Cami Henry look like they might be a good tandem pitching this year.

Thanks! I followed both of those games online, and was glad to see Danielle beginning to round into form. Also, Cami was a great pickup in the grad transfer market.

'Cats take down Weber State today 4 - 0. Danielle got the win giving up only 3 hits and striking out 10. Supple cleaned up at the end. Auburn again this afternoon and I suspect we'll see Cami Henry on the bump.
 
Great finish to the 2nd game of the DH as the Cats walk-off Auburn on a two run homer by Jordyn Rudd in the bottom of the seventh. Lauren Boyd came in relief of Henry and Supple and pitched shutout ball for 3 plus innings with 7 K’s and only 1 hit.
Defense played well also as Shellmeyer threw out 2 runners at the plate in the third Rudd threw out a base stealer at 2nd. Good day for the Lady Cats.

What a game! Auburn must be getting a little tired of the 'Cats! 😂

Another amazing win against Weber State today. 'Cats won it 6 - 4, scoring all 6 runs in the top of the 7th. Rudd stroked a 2 out bases loaded double to knock in the go ahead runs. Cami was a little shaky but got the win!:)

Cats do it again. Hannah Cary with the walk-off home run in the bottom of the ninth for a 8-7 win against Minnesota to open the BT season. Lauren Boyd with the win in relief of Danielle Williams. These Cats fight till the end.
Will see if they can get the game in tomorrow as rain is expected.

How highly regarded is Minnesota?
 
Another encouraging sign was that DW did not pitch at all today and we got two well pitched ballgames with Boyd and Henry giving up 1 run in each game.
That is very good and a good start to the BT season.

Boy, what happened to DePaul. Not too many years ago they were a softball power, even making CWS. Now it's 20-0.
