The Majors have claimed a share of the SCAC West division

Millsaps College - In only its third year of existence, the Millsaps women's fastpitch softball team is conference tournament bound. Holding a 7-1 Southern Collegiate Athletic Conference record, the Majors have claimed a share of the SCAC West division title with conference rival Trinity University (7-1). Under the guidance of second year head coach, Joe Kinsella, Millsaps has fast become an SCAC contender. Predicted to finish third in the SCAC West pre-season poll, the Majors will face the University of the South (Sewanee) in the first round of the SCAC Spring Sports Festival softball tournament on Friday, April 26, 2002. Millsaps will enter the tournament as the West \# 2 seed. Trinity will play as the West \# 1 seed. While Millsaps and Trinity each won one game in their rain-shortened series, the seeding is determined by head-to-head play for teams with identical conference records. Trinity holds a 4 run margin in run-differential over the Majors. (Millsaps defeated Trinity 3-2 in game 1, but fell 5-0 in the nightcap of a doubleheader).
