The Iowa softball team will travel to Oklahoma this weekend to compete in the Tulsa Tournament.

Iowa is currently 4-11.

The team will face Tulsa and Lamar in double-headers on Saturday and March 6. The Hawkeyes competed against Georgia Southern and Coastal Carolina last weekend, coming away with a 1-4 record.

The team’s lack of execution seems to be the problem thus far this season, and it doesn’t seem like they’ve found the right niche yet.

“We have to believe that we can overcome these 1-run losses,” Iowa head coach Marla Looper said. “Last weekend, we struggled to score runs. This weekend we scored them, but we gave up too many. If we can get all facets of our game together, or even two of the three on any given day, then we are going to get good outcomes.”
