After eliminating Missouri State on Saturday night, Mizzou sets its sights on Arizona
Back, back, back again, at Mizzou Softball Stadium where it all began.
It’s here. The last game at Mizzou Softball Stadium of the season. Regardless of if Mizzou can pull off two victories today over Arizona, they won’t be playing in the friendly confines of CoMo after today.

Interesting that Arizona is going with Devyn Netz on the mound.
From my preview:
Pitching: In the Wildcats’ last series against Stanford, they combined for 24 H and 16 R (13 ER). Devyn Netz’s last outing, in particular on 5/13 was ghastly: 10 hits and 7 ER in just 4.1 IP. This is clearly the way to beat the Wildcats, because wow— they struggle on the mound.
