Softball Drops CCIW Doubleheader at North Central

The Big Blue softball team traveled to Naperville, Ill. on Saturday, April 9 for a College Conference of Illinois & Wisconsin doubleheader against the Cardinals of North Central College. The Big Blue was swept by the Cardinals, falling in the first contest by a 2-3 margin and game two 1-2. 

After North Central put two runs up in the bottom of the first inning, a single off the bat of Lex Tennison plated Grace Biondo to cut the Big Blue deficit to one. The Cardinals added another run in the bottom of the third to move the margin back to two. Millikin rallied in the seventh, and a Leah Foreman triple added another run when Kendallyn Davison crossed the plate, but the Cardinals hung onto the lead for the game one victory. 

North Central struck first again in game two, with the visitors on the scoreboard tacking on one in the bottom of the first. Tennison sent a double to left field to score Gretchen Gould and tie the game at one, but a home run off the bat of Jaime Smith in the sixth inning was enough to give NCC the 1-2 win and secure the sweep. 

The Big Blue continues their 2022 CCIW campaign at Elmhurst University for a doubleheader on Sunday, April 10.
