Missouri Southern heads to Edmond, OK aiming for MIAA tournament title

JOPLIN, Mo. – The Missouri Southern Lions are just a few days away from playing in the final four of the MIAA softball conference tournament.

The Lions are in the final four after sweeping Missouri Western in two games last weekend. They’ll face Central Missouri on Thursday in Edmond, Oklahoma.

“It feels great. It’s always a great feeling to be winning and we’re in the perfect position to win it all, so I’m just excited,” says senior Makaila Leonhart, “I feel like we go out on the field, we leave it all out there and we do our thing. I think when we do that we’re unbeatable.”

“Our theme for right now is calm and confident. When we get there you know…I don’t know the last time Southern was in this position, but we fully plan on enjoying it being confident while we’re there, and walking in like we own the place.”
