Southern
reaches 1,000 k's
By Eddie Hughes
Fresno State pitcher Jamie Southern greeted Texas-El Paso by reaching
a strikeout milestone during game one of the Miners’ first-ever
visit to Bulldog Diamond. Southern became the 22nd player in NCAA
history to reach 1,000 strikeouts in the fourth inning when she
caught UTEP’s Denise Emmons looking at strike three. UTEP’s
softball program is 7-35 overall and 0-12 in the Western Athletic
Conference in its inaugural season. Southern recorded 10 strikeouts
in the 3-0 victory over UTEP to bring her career total to 1,005,
which puts her at No. 20 on
the all-time list. She notched that number up to 1,008 when she
came in to get the final four outs of the second game, a 4-0 Bulldogs’ win.More>>

business. It’s playoff time in the NBA. Now come the games
that matter. t took until the last day of the regular season to decide

since Michael Jordan’s Bulls teams, an Eastern Conference team
posted the best record in the league (Indiana at 61-21). With the regular
season race being so tight, these playoffs guarantee to be the most exciting
in quite awhile.More>>
