After only a couple of days of outside practice, why not take on the nation's #1 team, two conference opponents, an NCAA II team, and a junior college team that has jumped to NCAA I?

That's what's upcoming for head coach Anji Weissenfluh and her Mountaineer softball team at the Royal Inn Central Washington University Tournament this weekend in Richland, Wash.

All games in the annual event will be played at Columbia Playfields in downtown Richland next to Richland High School.

On Friday, EOU will take on the NAIA's #1 ranked team in Simon Fraser University.  last season, the Mountaineer lost in all three meeting against the Clan, including 10-0 in this very same tournament.

Southern Oregon will be Eastern Oregon opponent later in the day.  Eastern will try to break a string of six-consecutive losses to the Raiders and losses in 9 of their last 10 meetings.

Saturday begins with Northwest Nazarene, who the Mountaineers defeated 8-1 and 4-0 in Nampa this past weekend.  Eastern Oregon banged out 20 hits in the doubleheader against the Crusaders, including 6 extra base hits.

The final game on Saturday will be against Utah Valley State College.  Utah Valley State is playing their first season as an NCAA I independent and this will be the first-ever meeting between the two squads.

The Mountaineers will finish up the tournament on Sunday morning with a single game against Albertson at 10:45 am.  Eastern has defeated the 'Yotes in nine of their ten meetings since Albertson resurrected their program in 2002.

This will be the final action for the Mountaineer women softball team until the team heads south for Spring Break to participate in the Tucson Invitational, March 21-24.  Eastern will then travel to Caldwell to play in the annual CCC Pre-Season tournament, in which all games count toward conference standings.
