OXFORD, Miss. – The Ole Miss softball team will have two games broadcast on Fox Sports Net this season, including one home game at the Ole Miss Softball Complex, the Southeastern Conference office announcedTuesday.

“It’s always fun and exciting to play on TV, and we’re really looking forward to not only getting to play in front of all the Rebel Nation across the country, but to also get to showcase our team at home at the Ole Miss Softball Complex,” Ole Miss head coach Windy Thees said.
The starting times for both games have changed on account of being on TV. The Rebels’ game against Arkansas on March 23, which was originally scheduled for 1 p.m. CT, will now be played at 3 p.m. CT.
