Focusing on weather…and 3 opponents

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – The UK softball team is watching the weather forecast for Friday night closely, hoping the rain doesn’t ruin the Cats NCAA regional opener with Butler set to follow Utah and Illinois at John Cropp Stadium.

Kentucky and the Bulldogs are slated for a 6 o’clock first pitch.

Regardless of when the ladies take the field, it will be a quick turnaround to play either the Utes or Illini Saturday…or whenever they have to play…so the strategy isn’t just to focus on Butler, it’s to focus on all three potential opponents for this weekend.
