Southeast Missouri State softball team falls at OVC tourney

The Southeast Missouri State softball team suffered a setback at the Ohio Valley Conference tournament Friday.

The Redhawks were no-hit by Jacksonville State pitcher Tiffany Harbin in the Gamecocks' 4-0 win.

Southeast pitcher Alora Marble allowed all four runs in the first inning, but all four were unearned.

Harbin missed the perfect game by walking Carmen Fowler.

The Redhawks aren't done in the double-elimination tournament. They will face either UT-Martin or Eastern Illinois at 10 a.m. Saturday, and the winner of that game will face Jacksonville State in the title round. If Southeast were to beat Jacksonville State on Saturday, the teams would play again in a winner-take-all game.

Check back Saturday for more updates on the Southeast Missouri State softball team's run at the OVC tournament.
