The Murray State softball team's 2017 season will continue as it has qualified to the play in the Postseason NISC tournament, the NIT of softball, should it not be selected for the NCAA tournament.Â
"We are excited for and humbled by the opportunity to be invited to the first NISC," said head coach Kara Amundson. "The fact that this is Murray State softball's first postseason invite beyond the OVC tournament is a big deal for our program, as a whole, and this team, specifically. We have worked hard to get an opportunity like this and we are excited to hopefully go and take full advantage of it."
The tournament will consist of six regional campus sites with four to six teams playing at each site in a double elimination format with games played May 16-18. The double-elimination championship round will take place May 21-24 and will feature the six regional champions at a campus site.
Opponents, times and locations are all to be determined pending the official NISC selection announcement Sunday.. The selection announcement is expected to be made 2-3 hours after the NCAA Selection Show, which is scheduled for 9 p.m.
