Summit league played their softball tournament over 4 days while the Big Sky planned theirs over 3 days.  I am not sure what the Big Sky conference was thinking about when they know weather, lack of lights, and a 6 team double elimination tournament is hard to pull off over 3 days.  Tough way for UND and the other 2 teams to have their seasons end that way.

Kind of a terrible way to decide an autobid: change the rules in the middle of a tournament*. 

If teams had known going it it would effectively be single-elimination would they have used their pitching differently? Would it have changed the outcome? 

 

*Imagine going to a Frozen Faceoff and hearing, "Folks, the Zamboni broke down and we can't get parts until Monday. Knowing we can't resurface the ice we'll just have a five-round sudden death shoot-out between the teams to decide the autobid."  <---  @MafiaMan head explodes here.
