Rachel Crader is the editor of semoball.com. She graduated from the University of Missouri School of Journalism in May of 2009 before spending the summer covering the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas.

Highlights from Rachel's days in college include having a class down the hall from Chase Daniel and having NCAA wrestling champion Ben Askren hold the door open for her at Brady Commons, Mizzou's student center. She spent time covering Mizzou basketball, softball and baseball while working for the Columbia Missourian and is excited to return home to Southeast Missouri to cover local sports for semoball.com.

Rachel has covered three Southeast Missourian Christmas Tournaments for the Southeast Missourian and semoball.com, and she'll see you courtside again this year.

Cover It Live from state baseball

Posted Tuesday, May 31, 2011, at 4:28 PM

My trip to Springfield will span long enough for me to use Cover It Live to provide live updates from three games.

I'll have the Class 1 semifinal between Oran and Liberal at 4 p.m. Wednesday as well as the championship or third place games of Charleston and Oran on Thursday. I'll update here with the times for those games once we know when they will be.

For those who haven't participated or followed along with a Cover It Live chat before, I'll be providing instant updates from the games as well as talking to other fans sharing their thoughts from the stands or at home. I also do my best to answer any questions people have. It's always a lot of fun.

You can go to this page to check out past Cover It Live events and to join me Wednesday. I hope to talk to a bunch of you then.
