UW-Stevens Point closed out its spring softball
trip to Kissimmee, Fla. with a split on Friday to finish its trip with a
9-3 record. The Pointers had a six-game winning streak snapped in a 3-0
loss to Illinois Wesleyan and then thumped Carleton 8-0 in five innings.

three RBI�s to lead the Pointers in the win over Carleton. Hope Krause
pitched a six-hit shutout with three strikeouts in a game that took only
53 minutes.
Allison Dorn gave the Pointers a 1-0 lead with a
two-out, run-scoring single in the second inning and delivered again in
the third inning to cap a five-run outburst. Earlier in the frame, the
Pointers had three straight extra base hits as Anderson had a two-run
triple, Korryn Brooks followed with a triple and Jackie Berger slugged a
double off the wall.
Dorn, Brooks and Danielle Ashbeck were all
two-for-three as UW-Stevens Point totaled 12 hits.

sixth. UW-Stevens Point had runners on second and third with one out in
the fifth, but failed to score. Anderson pitched a complete game, allowing
nine hits and striking out five. |
