Ole Miss softball game against South Carolina canceled

Published 9:26 pm Monday, March 25, 2019

Monday’s series finale between Ole Miss and South Carolina was halted and eventually canceled due to rain. No makeup date will be scheduled and the stats from the game will not count.

Ole Miss was leading 2-0 heading into the fifth inning behind a two-run home run off the bat of Brittany Finney when rain began to come down at the Carolina Softball Stadium.

Although the rain subsided, the game was canceled per SEC rules because the fifth inning was not able to be resumed by 9 p.m. ET. A game must reach five complete innings before it can be considered a completed contest.
