Rebels shutout Golden Eagles in final non-conference game
The Ole Miss softball team, 34-12 (11-6), continued their hot stretch in April, outlasting a gritty Southern Mississippi team by a score of 3-0 on Wednesday night.
The Rebels, who have gone 10-3 in the month of April, put a stop to Southern Mississippi’s 11-game win streak. With the shutout win, the Rebels wrap up non-conference play with a 23-6 record against opponents outside of the SEC.
It was the bottom half of the Rebels’ lineup that slugged Ole Miss to its 34th victory of the season. Batting eighth in the lineup, freshman outfielder Tate Whitley stroked a two-RBI triple to right-centerfield plating Amanda Roth and Autumn Gillespie to claim an early 2-0 lead.
