OT: How not to lose to a "smaller school"
Quote:Gainesville, Fla. – The only winner on Tuesday night at McKethan Stadium was Mother Nature.
She intervened on behalf of the home-standing Florida Gators in the fifth inning with Stetson leading 10-1 and, when the rain stopped after a one hour, 45 minute delay, the Gators refused to come out and finish the game.
With two available open dates for the teams to resume the game, Florida also balked, saying those dates – Tuesday, May 10 and Tuesday, May 16 – were too close to the SEC Tournament for them to be able to play.
So, the Stetson Hatters will have to be happy with knowing that they beat the mighty Gators into submission, even though they won't get the win, or the stats, to show for their efforts.
Stetson jumped on the Gators, scoring six times in the second inning while building a 10-1 lead by the fifth before Mother Nature intervened in the proceedings.
