| The Luther
College softball team's season came to an end Saturday as
the result of a 1-0 loss to Coe College, but not before a
2-1 victory over Central College earlier in the day gave
Luther its 30th victory of the season. Luther's 30
wins marks the first time in school history that the
softball team has posted back-to-back 30 win seasons. Last
year the Norse set a single season school record with a
record of 35-7. In
Saturday's first game, Luther's Danielle Armbruster hit a
bases loaded single in the bottom of the seventh to give the
Norse a 2-1 victory over Central College in game eight of
the Iowa Conference Tournament. BreAnn VanDeer got the
victory, going seven innings, allowing one run on four hits.
In Saturday's second game,
Coe defeated the Norse 1-0. The Kohawks scored their
only run in the bottom of the third when Krystal Kopp
lead-off with a triple to right field. One batter later,
Ashley Leonard drove in Kopp on a sacrifice fly to the same
side of the ball park. |
