INDIANAPOLIS — Ball State softball (16-7) faced off against an in-state squad today in the Butler Bulldogs Tuesday afternoon (16-8) at the Bulldogs’ home field in Indianapolis. Though the blue and white hadn’t lost at home this season, the Cardinals ended that streak with a 7-0 victory. Leading the Cardinals on the mound was freshman pitcher Breanna Severino. She pitched a complete game, giving up zero runs, seven hits and had a strikeout. To Peńa, keeping the game simple was the key factor to the Cardinals’ solid performance on defense. “It's really just keeping the game simple and understanding what your job is, and then being able to adjust a pitch to pitch,” Peńa said. “Breanna (Severino) did a tremendous job of not letting things get to her, but also adjusting where she wanted the pitch to end.” But while the Bulldogs struggled to score runs, the Cardinals found multiple ways to hit the scoreboard. Junior Ella Whitney led the black and red with three hits on the day while sophomore Maia Pietrzak had two hits and led Ball State with two RBI. Redshirt junior Haley Urban also had two RBI. “Our plan is really just to have high energy and swing at good pitches and you know, hit the ball hard,” Pietrzak added. To the Cardinals, the early-season success has happened because of one thing. Their love for each other. “We play for who's on the field, who's not on the field, who's injured, who’s not injured. I feel like they're buying into one another and each other's capabilities and that's truly where all this excitement comes from,” Peńa said.Ball State will return to Muncie for the first time this season as Toledo visits for a three-game weekend series. The first game will be played Friday, March 21 at 1 p.m. The Cardinals are ready to play in front of their fans. “We’re so excited to play in front of our home crowd and really get conference going, and start off with a conference win,” Whitney said.

On March 11, Ball State Athletic director of athletics Jeff Mitchell announced the hiring of Andy Stoots as the next head coach for the Cardinals’ soccer team. Stoots is coming off of a four-year stretch as an associate head coach for the Missouri Tigers. Prior to the Tigers’ job, he was also on the coaching staff for the Louisville Cardinals and Minnesota Gophers where his teams were a part of multiple NCAA tournament berths. Stoots may have just been announced as head coach, but his focus is well beyond just that as he has already focused on some of the growing points for this season and where he wants the Cardinals to go. “We want to push them and challenge [the players] to get outside their comfort zone,” Stoots said. It is more than just focusing on the players though as this is also Stoots’s first head coaching gig. “Being a first-time head coach, there are things that we’re going to learn, no doubt about it,” Stoots said. “I’ve been lucky to work for a lot of head coaches so I do feel prepared in that way to jump in and get going.” Stoots comes into Muncie one year removed from the Cardinals missing the MAC tournament after making it the past three consecutive years. But that is in the past he suggested as he has all eyes forward to making it back to the Mid-American Conference (MAC) Tournament this year. “I haven’t really talked to them about last year, I’m new here,” he said, “I think when you come into a new team and a new culture, there's a lot of learning that takes place. I told them, ‘I'm not really interested in talking about last year.’ I'm more interested in thinking and going forward. We’ve done a lot of competing and training. We've done a lot of physical battling in training, and I think that's something that we want to do from the very beginning, is set that competitive edge.” Beyond the team, Stoots also credited Mitchell and Ball State President Geoffrey Mearns. “I’ve always been a big proponent of you choose people, not places, and that reeled me in,” he said. “Then when I came and got on campus and saw how nice the campus was, and met President Mearns and what a great, great person he was. It was the people first and foremost.” Contact Rylan Crum with comments at rylan.crum@bsu.edu or on X @RylanCrum
