Stanford at VT is D1 Softball's Top Matchup of the Week
Considering you also have Tennessee at Oklahoma on the docket, that's pretty high praise
Top Five Matchups to Watch
1. Stanford vs. Virginia Tech — Stanford flew east to play Notre Dame last weekend, stayed in the unfamiliar time zone to play a midweek against Kentucky, and now head to Blacksburg, where they’ll face off against Virginia Tech in a key series between two of the ACC’s top teams. Both teams can hit – the Cardinal’s rejuvenated offensive strategy has worked out brilliantly for them this season – though Virginia Tech boasts one of the nation’s best arms in Emma Lemley, while Stanford’s pitchers have done what they had to do to get the job done. The offenses will lead the way this weekend, but it will be noteworthy to keep an eye on how hearty of a role either team’s pitching staff makeup plays a role in the weekend’s result.

Good news for you; you get to watch top 15 softball for free
And you’ll probably be hooked like the rest of us. In my opinion it’s a better spectator experience than baseball
Doesn’t drag on forever and faster paced

Really hated to miss UVA but hated it more for the reason why. My aunt (dad’s sister) passed, my other aunt (her sister they did EVERYTHING together) is coming today with my dad. First time she’s really getting out with the rest of the family since her sister’s death. Couldn’t be more excited for us to be together with her as TSP…didn’t want her to be alone again this weekend. I think she’ll get hooked and be back. She’s a Hokie fan, been on road football trips with us (and my late aunt too), but this will be her first softball game at TSP
Can’t wait

They have Stanford at VT as their #3 matchup of the week
3. No. 16 Stanford @ No. 11 Virginia Tech
Where: Blacksburg, Virginia
When: March 28-30
What’s it on: Fri & Sun: ACCNX, Sat: ACCN
What do we want to see: Two ACC teams with hosting aspirations will clash this weekend in a series that promises plenty of runs. Stanford’s offense has been drastically better this season, while Virginia Tech continues to feature one of the nation’s best lineups. The Hokies’ offense remains a key strength, but the X-factor could be Virginia Tech’s ace, Emma Lemley. Stanford’s pitching staff has found its rhythm recently but has relied on only three different pitchers this season. Lemley’s experience could give the Hokies an edge, but don’t count out this scrappy Cardinal squad, which has proven resilient all season. Can Stanford muscle out a series win or will the Hokies prove to be too much for the Cardinal?

1200 X $5,00/ticket = $6000.00
1200 X $10.00/ticket = $12,000.00
Average: $9000.00 plus lost concessions
Again conservative estimate.
Thanks again, Mr. WB.
No email this time. I'd just hear crickets as usual
