2015 SOU Open – Amelia Maguin and Lauren McGowne (100m hurdles)
@SOURaiders @SOUTrackXC @maguingirl1 @LMcGowne
Yesterday saw the return of track and field to Raider Stadium for the first time in five years. Details here. Despite being April, the weather felt like summer. You won’t have to wait long to get in on the next competition in Ashland as Southern Oregon will also host the Cascade Conference Championships on May 8 and 9.

Three wins in their final six games (all on the road) will lock up a playoff spot for the Raiders. (Three losses by the team trailing them will result in the same fate, but winning is better than hoping for someone else to lose.)
P.S. Willie Nelson is coming to Britt this summer.
T-Rex the film in Ashland’s Varsity 2

I watched seven films at the 2015 Ashland Independent Film Festival last week. They were all good. I enjoyed them all and learned something from each. I don’t want to pick a favorite as that sort of implies that the others weren’t as good. However, T-Rex was absolutely one of my favorites. From the Q&A after the film showing it sounds like everyone will be able to enjoy this film on PBS next year. Don’t miss it.

P.S. Other favorites included Batkid and Kasamayaki.

SOU softball – Davalin Ontiveros
@_davvyy @SOURaiders @SOU_Softball
Brianne Craig threw 178 pitches in game one against Corban this weekend, a game with as many “woulda, coulda, shouldas” as innings (10), but the Raiders came up short. Shutout for the first six innings, the Raiders won game two with a walk-off. Ontiveros led the way with two hits, a run, and SOU’s only RBI.
All in all, it was not a bad week for Southern Oregon softball. The Raiders split with the ranked teams and swept the unranked team. If they do as well or better for the rest of the season they will make the playoffs and possibly end up in the final rankings.
