Exciting Changes for UCF Softball: Weekend Schedule Adjusted!
Greetings from Orlando! It’s shaping up to be an exciting weekend for UCF Softball, but as is often the case with spring weather, Mother Nature has thrown a little curveball. Due to anticipated inclement weather, the Knights have made some adjustments to their schedule for the Okana Invitational taking place in beautiful Norman.
A New Opening Matchup
Originally, the Knights were all set to take on the second-ranked Oklahoma Sooners on Friday, April 4. However, the schedule has been shuffled! Now, the Knights will kick off their weekend against St. Thomas at 4 p.m. CT on Friday. Mark your calendars for a great game as UCF looks to start the invitational with a bang.
And don’t worry, those highly anticipated matchups against the Sooners won’t be going anywhere. UCF will still face off against Oklahoma at 7 p.m. CT on Friday evening. So, whether you’re rooting for the Knights or the Sooners, there’s plenty of action to look forward to!
Watch the Action Live!
Now, for all the fans hoping to catch the game, there’s a little snag. The matchup against St. Thomas will not be live-streamed or televised. So, if you’re looking to watch that one from home, you might want to grab a buddy and hit up a local sports bar instead!
However, the showdown between UCF and Oklahoma on Saturday, April 5, at 12:30 p.m. CT will still take place as planned and will be streamed live on SECN+. Make sure to grab your snacks and get comfortable for this big game!
