The Lady Bucks continue to tear it up, defeat #12 Northwestern
From the Official Site
EVANSTON, Ill. - Courtney Pruner drove home three runs on two RBI doubles as the No. 11-ranked and Big Ten-leading Ohio State softball team defeated 12th-ranked Northwestern, 7-6, Saturday afternoon at Sharon J. Drysdale Field. The loss snapped a 29-game regular-season home winning streak for Northwestern, dating back to April 15, 2007, dropping its record to 29-12, 12-5 in the Big Ten, while the Buckeyes improve to 41-7 overall and 13-2 in the conference with their 15th win in the last 16 games.
Pruner also made the game-winning catch with a diving snag of Nicole Pauly?s fly to right field. The Wildcats scored two and had placed the potential game-tying run on second with no outs, but Ohio State forced three-consecutive outs to retire the side, ending with Pruner?s catch, in the bottom of the seventh.

Huge games vs dUMb coming up
From the Official Site
COLUMBUS, Ohio - The Ohio State softball team holds onto to its No. 11 ranking by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association for the second-consecutive week as it heads into a pivotal Big Ten doubleheader with eighth-ranked Michigan, with whom it shares the current top spot in the conference, at 5 p.m. Wednesday in Ann Arbor, Mich. The game will be televised live on the Big Ten Network, with Leah Secondo and Heather Lyke calling the action.
The Scarlet and Gray, winners of its last seven games and 16 of its last 17, is holding steady at the top of the Big Ten for the third week in a row with a 14-2 conference record and an overall 42-7 ledger coming off a record-breaking sweep of No. 12 Northwestern last weekend. Ohio State earned a 7-6 win Saturday, breaking Northwestern?s 29-game home winning streak, before coming away with a 10-1 win in five innings Sunday. Freshman shortstop Alicia Herron hit three homeruns on the weekend, while Courtney Pruner tallied six RBI between the two games.
Michigan is currently 38-9 on the season and 14-2 in the Big Ten, sharing the conference lead with Ohio State. The schools also split the conference weekly awards this week, with Herron taking player of the week honors for the Buckeyes and Michigan hurler Jordan Taylor receiving pitcher of the week honors after throwing back-to-back two-hitters last week. The Wolverines have won 18 games in a row, dating back to March 22 and a 2-1 loss to Northwestern in Evanston, Ill. They are an undefeated 11-0 at their home field, the Wilpon Soccer Complex, this season.

Michigan sweeps Buckeyes, win Big Ten
The Lady Buckeyes were swept yesterday in a double-header at Michigan. The sweep clinched at least a tie for the regular season title for scUM. If they lose their last two and Ohio State wins, they will tie, but scUM holds the tie-breaker due to yesterday's wins.
ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Sam Marder tied the Ohio State softball team's all-time career home run record with a solo shot in the first game of a doubleheader sweep at the hands of eighth-ranked Michigan Wednesday at Alumni Field. The Buckeyes fell 6-3, 5-2, snapping a seven-game winning streak and dropping their record to 42-9 on the season, 14-4 in the Big Ten, while the Wolverines improve to 40-9 overall and 16-2 in the conference.
With the wins, Michigan clinches at least a share of the Big Ten title. If the Wolverines should lose both of their games this weekend and Ohio State picks up two more wins Saturday, the teams would share the honor, with Michigan holding the NCAA Tournament automatic bid advantage in the head-to-head tiebreaker.

Lady Buckeyes to host Regional
COLUMBUS, Ohio - The 11th-ranked Ohio State softball team has been awarded the No. 11 seed in the 2009 NCAA Tournament and will welcome Canisius, BYU and Kentucky to New Buckeye field this week for one of 16 regional tournaments, the NCAA announced Sunday along with the rest of the 64-team field. The Buckeyes (44-9) are the top seed within the double-elimination regional and will face Canisius at 7:30 p.m. Thursday. BYU and Kentucky open the Columbus regional action at 5 p.m.
Canisius (26-23) earned the automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament after capturing the MAAC Championship over Niagara Saturday, 9-0, while BYU (39-16) finished its season as Mountain West champions and Kentucky is 32-21 after falling to Alabama in the second round of the SEC Tournament. Canisius paid a visit to Columbus for the 2007 regional, where it fell to Virginia Tech and Cal State Fullerton.
"We were certainly hoping to be a Top 16 seed in the tournament and to be No. 11 is a testament to how this team has played all season," head coach Linda Kalafatis said. "We are excited to begin play Thursday with Canisius and to take this whole weekend one game at a time as we try to reach a Super Regional. To host for a second time in three years is an honor and we look forward to welcoming these three teams to New Buckeye Field."
