EPHRAIM, Utah - The College of Southern Idaho Softball Team beat Snow College 8-7 in 10 innings before scoring the go-ahead run in the seventh to take game two 4-3 Tuesday in Scenic West Athletic Conference play.
Both teams were knotted in a pitchers duel in game one, tied at three going into the 10th inning when CSI scored five runs on three singles and a double. But the game was far from over as Snow answered with a double and two home runs to pull within one. Enter Emerson Fuller. The freshman shut the Badgers down with a flyout and two strikeouts to give CSI the win.
Rilyne Keck finished the game 3-for-5 with a double and two RBI, Anslie Yazzie was 3-for-5 with a home run and two RBI, Abbie Banning was 2-for-5 with a home run and double and Lexi Crowley was 3-for-5.
Eva Stoddard earned the win, pitching nine innings and giving up six earned runs with two strikeouts.
Game two started slow and ended much the same as game one.
The Golden Eagles were tied with Snow at 3 apiece going into the seventh inning. CSI was able to scratch a run across when Kelsie Jensen singled followed by a two-base error that put Adi Hansen on second and Jensen on third. Alyce Archuleta then scored Jensen on a sacrifice fly.
Snow led off the bottom half with a double before Fuller again entered the game to shut down the Badgers. She got three straight outs to secure the CSI win.
The Golden Eagles, now 9-1 in conference play, take on Snow against Wednesday for a doubleheader.
