DECATUR, Ala. – The University of Tennessee Southern softball team continued questing for a SSAC Championship on Friday. The Firehawks opened the day with a 4-0 loss to #19 Middle Georgia State. The Firehawks head to the losers bracket for a rematch with Mobile. The game was originally scheduled for 1 p.m., but lighting in the area halted play before the conclusion of the 11 a.m. games.
