BOWLING GREEN, Ky. -- WKU Softball has announced its 2016 fall schedule that includes five chances for fans to catch the squad in intercollegiate action on The Hill. Head coach Amy Tudor and the Hilltoppers will play seven games in addition to a pair of intersquad Red and White Challenges this fall.
WKU fall play will open on Sunday, September 18, with a doubleheader against Ball State followed by Evansville in Westfield, Indiana. A week later, the Hilltoppers will face off in the Red and White Challenge I, which is slated for a 1 p.m. first pitch from the WKU Softball Complex. The scrimmage will open WKU's home schedule that includes the remainder of the fall games.
The following weekend, Campbellsville will come to town for a Saturday doubleheader with opening throws scheduled for noon and 2 p.m.
WKU's next contest will take place on Saturday, Oct. 15, against Volunteer State at 6:30 p.m. Kentucky comes to town the following day for another double header with 1 and 3 p.m. starts. Events that weekend will be a part of the team's Bark in the Park outing, which will be highlighted by local entrepreneur Abbi Broadway throwing out the opening pitch of the Kentucky doubleheader. At just nine years of age, Broadway has started her own business in hopes of raising money to afford a service dog she needs to help deal with life altering seizures.
