The Miners lost two games in a row to the 15th nationally ranked Missouri Tigers on Monday, March 21 at the Helen of Troy softball field after coming off three straight wins over the weekend against Louisiana Tech.
Although the Miners struggled against the SEC powerhouse team, head coach Tobin Echo-Hawk believed there were a lot of takeaways in the doubleheader.
“In all honesty, I’d rather play a stronger team like this to help challenge us going into conference play than to just play a team we can just walk all over and not get any challenge out of it,” Echo-Hawk said.
