Rosas is the only kicker currently signed by the New York Giants for the 2017 season. Let’s hope that situation continues.

Southern Oregon’s road loss to Eastern Oregon cost the Raiders only one spot in the rankings as they dropped from #5 to #6. This news, coupled with the coin toss giving them home court advantage through the tournament, means that should SOU win the Cascade Conference Tournament they will be at worst a #2 seed in the national tournament. With a little luck, they can even still earn a #1 seed.

Autumn Durand moved into 3rd place among SOU’s all-time scoring leaders in last night’s win

@SOURaiders @ADurand25 @souwbb

Today, beginning at 1 at Ashland High School, the SOU women’s basketball team will play for their second consecutive Cascade Conference championship. Last year they won the conference outright. They must win today to become co-champions with Eastern Oregon University.

Should the Raiders and EOU finish with identical conference records (and Massey says there is a 96% chance they will), a coin flip will determine a couple things. Heads gets the “winner” an automatic seat at the national tournament. However, should they “lose” the coin flip, the result is even better. They will become the #1 seed in the conference tournament. Since SOU is already a near lock for the national tournament, they should be hoping to lose the coin flip. That will likely give them more home games in the conference tournament, which may lead to more victories (they haven’t lost at home in years), and possibly a higher seed at the national tournament.

2017 Southern Oregon University softball team

The big question for this season was pitching. Gabby Sandoval, a true freshman, appears to be the answer to the question. Sandoval is now 6-0 on the season, and SOU is 8-1 overall.

The home opener is just over three weeks away.
