Men’s basketball is going dancing for the 7th time in ten years, while the baseball team started it’s conference season with a bang. Men’s and women’s golf is in full swing, and the tennis teams continue to compete. Belmont softball faced tough competition, while track didn’t have to go far for a competitive meet.
Not included in Episode: Because we don’t shoot on the day we post, sometimes we miss a few athletic events. Below is a recap of what didn’t make it in Episode 13 of Bruin Blitz.
Women’s Golf Bobby Nichols Intercollegiate at the Sevierville Golf Club in Sevierville, Tenn.
The team won first place at the Bobby Nichols Intercollegiate held Monday and Tuesday in Sevierville, Tenn. thanks to three top-five individual finishes.

Baseball vs. MTSU
After a slow start, the Bruins managed to get on base with only four total hits to push past Middle Tennessee 8-2 on Tuesday at E. S. Rose Park.
