This Week in Yellowjacket Athletics (4/27/2017)

Last Week's Highlights
- After announcing its alignment with Under Armour last week, the University of Wisconsin Superior has now opened an UA apparel store.
- The Yellowjacket women's golf team concluded its 2017 season with a second-place finish at the Falcon Classic in River Falls last Saturday.

Baseball (10-20, 5-5 UMAC)
- UW-Superior's Tuesday home doubleheader against the University of Northwestern was postponed with a make-up date yet to be announced. The Yellowjackets were 3-3 last week with a 3-1 weekend that included a sweep of Crown College, a team that previously had just one defeat in the Upper Midwest Athletic Conference. Saturday, UWS will hit the road to take on Bethany Lutheran College in Mankato, Minnesota. The Vikings are 15-15 on the season and 7-4 in league play. Sunday, the Yellowjackets continue on the road in a non-conference doubleheader at St. Olaf College before returning home for their final non-UMAC games hosting the University of Wisconsin-Stout on Wednesday. The Oles are 9-18 this season while the Blue Devils are just 7-20 on the year.

Men's Golf
- After the women's team wrapped up their season last week, Friday will mark the end of the men's season as UW-Superior travels to Middleton, Wisconsin for a quad meet hosted by Edgewood College. Last week, the Yellowjackets finished second at the Martin Luther-hosted UMAC-filled invitational in Mankato.

Softball (14-15, 7-7 UMAC)
- UW-Superior claimed one victory in a pair of conference doubleheaders last weekend, keeping their playoff hopes alive headed into the final weekend of conference play. The Yellowjackers are currently fifth in the five-team playoff field and need at least a win and possibly two this weekend to wrap up a spot in next week's UMAC Tournament. UWS takes on North Central University on Saturday. The Rams are currently 0-30 and 0-12 against conference foes.

Men's and Women's Track & Field
- After highlight performances by the Yellowjacket throwers and distance team last week, the UW-Superior men will be in action Thursday night in St. Paul at the Macalester College-hosted Bolstorff Twilight meet. Both teams will reconvene Saturday at the Cardinal Open hosted by Saint Mary's University in Winona, Minnesota.
