Aces will now face Green Bay in Decatur, Ill.
Due to inclement weather in the forecast for Chattanooga, Tennessee, the University of Evansville softball team has announced an updated opponent and location for the weekend due to the cancellation of the Frost Classic.
The Purple Aces will now travel to Decatur, Ill. to face Green Bay. A 4-game series will be on tap on the campus of Millikin University. The Purple Aces and Phoenix will open up the series on Saturday with a doubleheader at 11 a.m. with Sunday’s action beginning at 10 a.m.
UE opened its season last weekend, going 2-2 at the Black & Gold Tournament in Montgomery, Alabama. The Aces wrapped up the weekend on a high note, defeating Alabama State in the final two games. Mea Adams led the team with a .583 batting average in the opening weekend while Eryn Gould batted .500 with a team-high six RBI.
In the circle, Jaime Nurrenbern picked up a win while throwing 8 1/3 innings and allowing just two unearned runs. Izzy Vetter also had a nice start to the season, tossing 10 innings while allowing one earned run.
