Softball Swept by Hope in Home Doubleheader

The Millikin softball team took the field in Decatur, Ill. on Saturday, March 28 against Hope. In the doubleheader, the Big Blue fell in both contests. 

Hope started off the scoring right away, tallying three runs in the top of the first. They added four more in the third, putting the Big Blue down 0-7. 

Millikin rallied starting with a sacrifice fly in the fourth by Ann Marie Meek that plated Emily Kobel. Abby Willis sent a single to right field later in the inning to score Abbey Matthews and cut the deficit to 2-7. They added another in the fourth on a solo homer off the bat of Summer Wynn. With the bases loaded, Ava Zukowski knocked in a run by getting hit by a pitch to slim the deficit to three with Willis crossing the plate.

Hope added another pair of runs on a double by Katie Hofman in the seventh to take a 4-9 win in game one. Charley Condill went 3-for-5 from the plate in game one, and Willis, Wynn, and Haley Willan were all 2-for-4 from the dish. 

In game two, it was all Hope offensively. After tallying one run in the first, the Dutch posted a five-run second inning, then one more in both the fifth and seventh innings to defeat the Big Blue, 0-8. 

Condill was 2-for-2 from the plate in game two. Millikin stranded 10 runners on base in the second game. 

Millikin softball will get a chance for redemption on Sunday, March 29 when they meet Illinois College in a doubleheader at the Workman Family Softball Field in Decatur, Ill. with game times set for 3:00 & 5:00 PM.
