Baseball (15-25, 9-7 UMAC)
- After a thrilling finish to the conference season that saw UW-Superior win four-straight to steal the fourth seed in the UMAC - literally, as senior Chad Patko (Stone Lake, Wis./Hayward H.S.) swiped home to give the Yellowjackets a walk-off win on Sunday - UWS faces stiff competition this weekend as the team travels across the bridge to take on the top-seeded No. 25 College of St. Scholstica. The undefeated Saints had the number of every team during the UMAC regular season, defeating the Yellowjackets 11-3 last time out in Duluth. Win or lose, UW-Superior will live on to Friday in the double-elimination tournament, taking on either Bethany Lutheran College or the University of Minnesota Morris, who compete on the other side of the bracket Thursday. The Vikings defeated the Yellowjackets 8-1 and 16-8 on April 29, while the Cougars stole a pair from UWS, 7-4 and 7-6 back on April 17.

Men's and Women's Track & Field
