WNC keeps playoff hopes alive
The Western Nevada College softball team picked up a much needed win that likely kept its playoff hopes alive.
After losing the first three games in its series at Colorado Northwestern, the Wildcats pulled out a 4-3 win in the nightcap of a doubleheader on Saturday. WNC lost the opener 4-2.
WNC (5-29, 4-24) is now tied with Colorado Northwestern with four wins in the Scenic West Athletic Conference. WNC and Colorodo Northwestern finished 4-4 against each other in conference play.
Six of the SWAC's seven teams advance to the conference's postseason tournament and WNC and Colorado Northwestern are battling for the last playoff spot. WNC has played four less conference games than Colorado Northwestern because it had a series with Utah's Snow College canceled.
