AMC Softball Tournament Pairings Released

The American Midwest Conference has released the 2008 AMC Softball Tournament Bracket. The double elimination tournament, to take place April 26th-28th, will be hosted by the University of Illinois at Springfield. The MBU Lady Spartans have received the third seed of eight teams.

The Lady Spartans were in second place in the AMC for much of the season, but two losses to William Woods University on Tuesday night dropped MBU (25-13, 9-5) into third, with WWU finishing second, and Columbia College remaining in the top spot.

MBU will face UIS in the first round of play at 2:00 p.m. on Thurday. MBU beat UIS in a marathon double header on Monday night that went a combined 20 innings.
