Ole Miss softball opened their season with a five-game losing streak this past weekend in Clearwater, Florida. The Rebels had a series of losses including Louisville 4-2, NC State 3-2, Illinois 3-1, Notre Dame 7-5 and Liberty 4-2.
The Rebels fell behind early and were unable to finish a seventh-inning comeback in the season opener against Louisville.
Despite Louisville opening the second inning by scoring a solo home run, the Rebels came back to tie at the end of the inning. After a mishandle at first base, Kelsha Loftin slid into home base. An immediate response from the Cardinals in the third helped them reclaim their lead.
