The series is crucial for SEC Tournament seeding, with the Rebels aiming to improve their position.
Ole Miss’s junior outfielder Cassie Reasner has been hot at the plate, hitting .487 with six home runs and 15 RBIs over her last 11 games. Freshman Madi George recently set the school single-season home run record with 10 homers in nine games.
