Sunday, March 9th
Baseball
USF (11-5) dropped the last game of the series against Northwestern 6-4. The Bulls have some bad pitching in the seventh to thank for the loss. Back to back hit batters forced in the first run of the four run inning. A two-run single and a sac fly brought in the other three.

Sara Nevins was clearly fed up with losing and absolutely dominated the second game for a 5-0 win over St. Joseph's. Nevins went the full seven innings and narrowly missed getting a perfect game. She gave up only one hit and no walks and got eight strikeouts. The lone hit came against the first batter she faced.
