Bison Sports Update: April 7th

Kind of a rough week for Bison athletics..

Softball
NDSU Softball took a last trip out to the West Coast this week for their final non-conference games, against UNLV. The Bison gave the Rebels everything they could handle in the series opener, and emerged victorious after 9 innings, 2-1. However, they expended all that energy in that game, and couldn't find the win column in the next two games and lost the series.
This week, the Bison will head back home to Tharaldson Park to host league-leading South Dakota State for a 3 game series. It begins with a doubleheader on Saturday.
North Dakota State Softball is 3-3 in Summit League play and 16-25 overall on the season.

Baseball
NDSU Baseball opened up Newman Outdoor Field this weekend against SDSU. The Bison struggled quite a bit against the Jacks and could only manage to win game 2, 9-8. This continues their struggle against their archrivals to the south from last season, when they couldn't beat them in the Summit League tournament.
This week, NDSU will hit the road again. First, they will head down to Minneapolis to play the Gophers on Tuesday. Then, the Bison will head out to Greeley to play a 3 game conference series against Northern Colorado starting on Friday.
North Dakota State Baseball is 5-4 in Summit League play and 8-19 overall on the season.

​Go Bison!!
