The ��ɫ����������ƵӰԺ Eagles softball team used strong hitting and a never-say-die attitude to earn a six-game winning streak at the Murray State Softball Festival over the weekend. The Eagles won their first six games at the tournament before dropping the final contest to finish the weekend 6-1.

The Eagles entered the weekend tournament in Tishomingo, OK with a 5-9 record but came away from the tourney with a season record of 11-10 after coming from behind in four of their six wins.

The Eagle hitters crushed the ball all weekend as the team scored 53 runs while batting .341 with 43 RBI.
