Softball Sees a Split with Upper Iowa

The UIS softball team fell 5-3 in the first game of a doubleheader against the Upper Iowa Peacocks before winning 5-2 in game two. UIS is now 19-13 overall and 3-3 in conference play.

GAME ONE (L, 5-3)
  • The Prairie Stars hit first as the Peacocks were originally set to be the home team in the doubleheader that was moved to Springfield due to weather in Fayette, Iowa. 
  • Much of the action occurred in the later innings as UIU got to scoring in the fourth with a triple and a single
  • It'd be a 3-0 game after a UIU unearned run in the fifth inning
  • The final UIU runs of the game came in the sixth on a sacrifice fly and an RBI single
  • UIS began to rally in the seventh with a much needed 2 RBI double by Isabella Wilson that scored Ella Brinkley and Rosie Bartletti
  • One more run came through when Ramsey Armstrong singled, but the Prairie Stars would not pull off the comeback
  • Rosie Bartletti fell to 6-3 with the loss

GAME TWO (W, 5-2)
  • The Peacocks would score first once again with a first-inning RBI single. An unearned run came through on a passed ball for UIU to lead 2-0
  • UIS got to scoring in the fourth when Jacy Watts grounded out for Addyson McClure to come home
  • Taylor Zawacki and Katy Beagle would then score on an error by the UIU pitcher
  • Ramsey Armstrong added a 2 RBI single in the fifth to plate two more runs
  • Addyson McClure went the final four innings to get the win
