Lady Pirates Softball closed the regular season with another home split against Three Rivers Community College on Tuesday.  NCMC, who will be the #4 seed in the upcoming Region 16 Tournament, finished with a 34-15 overall record and 10-14 in region play. 

Alex Miller stared in the 5-1 opening game victory.  She tossed the complete game allowing only one run to Three Rivers.  At the plate, she clubbed a 2 run homer which would be all the offense the Lady Pirates would need.

Game two saw Three Rivers rebound for a 14-2 victory.  NCMC gave up those 14 runs on 8 hits and 4 errors.

Friday will be the start of the Region 16 tournament in Joplin, MO.  The 4-seed Lady Pirates will open with action against 5-seed MCC-Maple Woods.  In the regular season, Coach Richman's squad split the 4-game series with the Monarchs.  With a win, NCMC would again face 1-seed Three Rivers.  Below is the full tournament bracket.
