BRIEFLY: TAHKIANS CAN CLINCH ANOTHER OVC TITLE TODAY

Southeast Missouri State University's softball team can clinch its third straight Ohio Valley Conference regular-season championship today at Tennessee-Martin.

The Otahkians need to win only one game of the 3 p.m. doubleheader to wrap up another OVC title.

Southeast is 26-17-1 overall and 19-4 in OVC play with four games remaining. Tennessee Tech, which is 13-8 in OVC play, is the only league team with a mathematical chance to catch the Otahkians.

Following today's action, the Otahkians will wrap up the OVC regular-season schedule Saturday with a 2 p.m. home doubleheader against Eastern Illinois.
