I read that Purdue is the first #12 seed to reach the semifinal. Great work!

This is exciting stuff - we (or at least I) tend to forget about the less visible/covered sports teams but those guys and gals work just as hard as their more “popular” counterparts to excel and rep Purdue.
I’ve watched the end of the previous 2 games and frankly, Purdue looks dialed in and more than capable of pulling off another win tonight. Team looks connected and energized, and full of joy. Recipe for success? Sure looks like it right now.
Boiler Up ladies and get this next one.
Obviously helps playing at home but geez it’s about time Purdue catches some athletic schedule breaks!
I’ll be watching tonight. Good luck team!

It would be amazing to win one more…

It really helps their Cinderella run that 8th seeded Michigan (usually a powerhouse, so kind of surprising they are seeded this low) upset top seeded Oregon.

Much like in WBB - the additions of UCLA, Oregon and Washington has made a huge impact on B1G softball - which usually is pretty weak nationally compared to the SEC and B12 - primarily due to weather constraints. Big Blue actually has competition now with the west coast schools joining.

Looks like the bandwagon picked up a big crowd for tonight. Good luck Boilers!
