The Iowa Conference softball title will be decided a day later than expected. Today’s doubleheader between ninth ranked Simpson and number-22 Central has been moved to Saturday afternoon. Simpson is 12-2 and only needs a split to win the league title while Central is 11-3 and needs a sweep to win the championship.Central coach George Wares says if it were the last day they would’ve played, but they want to try and get both games in with the best weather available. Central has crawled back into the title hunt after stumbling out of the gate at the start of conference play. He says they started with three quick conference loses, but have responded well and Simpson lost a game and allowed them to have a chance.The league champion will get an automatic berth into the division three regionals. the runner-up must hope for an at-large bid.
