HOKIES!!!
Are we a softball school now?
Always have been 🌎 👨🚀🔫🧑🚀
Love the emojis.
It's on flosports btw
Idk what the month subscription price is
Yes it's such a joke. Why can't espn stream it or ACCNx stream.
If a team was hosting it at their campus, then the streaming/tv would probably fall to whatever network has that team's/conference's rights, but it looks like it's an independent tournament with no school hosting, so they just gave it to the highest bidder.
Looks like a good test to start the season, hopefully they come away over. 500

A clean sweep! Congratulations to the Lady Hokies. Spectacular softball and 2-0 against ranked SEC teams. 😍
Big dubs only
Also game ended with 2 outs in the bottom of the 7th due to a dead drop rule
Does that mean they stopped the game because the time allowed to play had expired?
Correct.
