SCHEDULE CHANGESMorehead State's home doubleheader with Dayton has been canceled, while its home twinbill with Northern Kentucky has been re-scheduled for April 21. More than half of MSU's originally-scheduled games have been changed (opponent, date, location, etc.) due to weather and field conditions.
THE WEEK AHEADMorehead State is now expected to open a five-game homestand against Ohio Valley Conference opponent Belmont on Saturday (1 p.m. doubleheader) and Sunday (1 p.m. single). The Eagles are slated to wrap up the stretch versus Wright State on Wednesday, April 15 (2 p.m. doubleheader).
A CAREER-BEST STREAKSophomore Kayla McGuffey hit safely in a career-best 11 straight games (20-for-39, 5 R, 4 RBI) from March 22 through April 5. The outfielder leads Morehead State in batting average (.375), on-base percentage (.398), hits (39), runs (16) and stolen bases (11).
THE FRESHMAN IN THE CIRCLEFreshman Mackenzie Grossmann owns an 8-6 record and 3.11 ERA in 23 appearances. The right-hander has limited opponents to a .221 batting average while striking out 63 in 99.0 innings. She earned victories over Cleveland State and Austin Peay last week.
