The Champions!

For the third straight season, the Omaha softball team has reached the summit and can call itself Summit League tournament champions.

Omaha used a big second inning and solid pitching from Maddia Groff to beat South Dakota, 4-2, in the title game of the Summit League Championship Saturday afternoon at Jerald T. Moriarty Field on the campus of South Dakota State.

The Mavericks (39-11) – in the Summit League title game for the fifth straight season and having won a share of the Summit League regular-season title for the first time in program history – close out the conference portion of their schedule with five wins in their last six games and an 18-2 mark in their last 20 contests.

Omaha also earns the league's automatic qualifier (AQ) to the NCAA Championship, beginning with the regional round.
