Spartan softball coach Eric Ramey knew the home stretch of his team’s schedule would be a challenge. The final six games going into last weekend all feature Little East Conference opponents, and wins are necessary for the Spartans to advance into the six-team LEC tournament later this month.
“It’s not an easy road for us to drive right now,” Ramey said last Thursday.
Then the Spartans upset #3 ranked Eastern Connecticut State in Windham, Connecticut Friday afternoon, splitting the day’s doubleheader with a dramatic last inning out at third base spurred by a desperate sacrifice bunt by the Warriors.
