2/2/2017 | Softball
OXFORD, Miss. - With its 2017 season countdown now in the single-digit range, Ole Miss softball is gearing up for its first trip out West to California with two open scrimmages this weekend.
The Rebels will participate in an intrasquad game Friday at 3 p.m., with batting practice set for 2:15 p.m. Saturday's scrimmage will begin at noon with batting practice scheduled for 11 a.m. Fans are encouraged to attend to catch a glimpse of the 2017 Rebels before they embark on a 15-game tournament swing in California, Texas and Florida.
Both scrimmages will take place at the Ole Miss Softball Complex, where Ole Miss will host 27 home games this season, including two tournaments (Red & Blue Classic, Ole Miss Classic). Following 15-straight on the road, the Rebels host Louisiana Tech in the home opener, March 1, to kick-off a string of 14-in-a-row in Oxford.
The season opens next weekend, Feb. 10-12, at the Easton Invitational hosted by Cal State Fullerton.
