Between finding transportation for 70-plus football players and flights forced to make emergency landings, there is a lot that goes into coordinating and scheduling games for Butler athletic teams. However, it isn’t uncommon for travel plans to get sidetracked.

Flights get rescheduled, classes are missed, and sometimes, teams even leave in the middle of a game to catch their flight.

Primed to defeat No. 6 Texas A&M Aggies, the Butler softball team was dominant during the Texas A&M Invitational earlier in February.
