Same score, Top 8th, 5:35 pm

Love the fact that we went down swinging right until the final out ! We cut the lead to 7-4 before the 27th out was recorded.

Saturday, April 25th, will be the season ending game for West Virginia Tech University Baseball ⚾️ and that leaves us just over two weeks of action left. Three weekend series remain ➕️ two scheduled mid-week tilts with both being on the road, beginning today at the University of Pikesville.

We enter today’s non-conference match-up with a 9-9 mark in such games. The Bears of Pikeville are enjoying another strong season and should prove to be quite the foe. The final mid-week match-up will take place next Tuesday at Davis & Elkins.

It’s always a great day to be a Golden Bear 🐻!

The team returns to Linda K Epling Stadium this weekend for the next to last home three game set versus IU – Kokomo and close out the home schedule on April 24 & 25 versus Midway.

West Virginia Tech University Softball had an extremely busy 24+ hours as the Lady Golden Bears played back to back doubleheaders in Beckley, against two different conference opponents.

Today, the team hosted Midway, and the opening game lasted 10 innings. WVU-T won 6-5 when they pushed across a run in the third extra frame.

After a short break, they laced them back up and played another seven innings on a day where the temperature 🌡was in the 80’s. Four and one-half hours after they started, they completed the day by dropping a hard fought 4-2 decision.

After the conclusion of their day, some of the players jumped into their cars 🚗 and made the drive up to Linda K Epling Stadium 🏟 for the end of our second game !

Student Athletes supporting fellow Student Athletes is always neat to see 👀 but to do it after their 24 hours is over the top !

Welcome 🙏 back to Linda K Epling Stadium 🏟, where we are now inside of an hour of having our first pitch of Game 1 of today’s doubleheader with Rio Grande.

Day 2 of a series is always a bit more relaxed than Day 1 because the meeting with the visiting Head Coach has already taken place. But today, it’s Brad Warnimont, so extra time with someone of his caliber is a treat.

Here for the day and no telling where the day will take us, but happy to find out !

Stay tuned !

It’s time to start focusing on our upcoming Senior Day project. This year we have a group of six…

From Narrows, Virginia – now pitching, Aiden McGlothlin !

Final Score – Red Storm 7, Golden Bears 🐻 3. Time of game, 2 hours 39 minutes.

Once again, we matched the number of hits, just not the number of runs.

The game ended at 2:42 . Look to restart at 3:15ish.

Top of the 7th inning, and we are three outs from a W !

Sometimes, baseball ⚾️ can break your heart ❤️.

Rio Grande plated two runs in their final at bat on a one out double and held off our Golden Bears 🐻, 6-5, allowing the Red Storm to complete a three game sweep. All three games were highly competitive, but all three went the way of the visitors.

It’s time to head back to Laurel Fork 🍴.
