Extra-Inning Win Earns Split for Eagles

MORRIS, Minn. – The University of Northwestern softball team (14-18, 10-4 UMAC) split Friday's doubleheader on the road at Minnesota Morris (9-27, 4-10 UMAC). The Eagles picked up a thrilling 2-0 extra-inning win in game one before falling in game two, 9-0.

Game One
In a pitcher's dual, the Eagles and Cougars needed eight innings to decide a winner.

UNW scored its runs when Jennifer Ankrom (New Hampton, Iowa/New Hampton) tripled to right field to bring Mindy Forcier (Watkins, Minn./Eden Valley-Watkins) around to score. Ankrom then crossed the plate on Colleen Feldheim (Northfield, Ill./Loyola Academy)'s RBI groundout.

Lauren Silbernick (Osakis, Minn./Osakis) hurled a gem, scattering just five hits in eight innings of work, while not allowing a run to pick up her sixth win of the season.

Mindy Forcier (Watkins, Minn./Eden Valley-Watkins) led a balanced attack at the plate, as the sophomore knocked a pair of hits.

Game Two
UNW was unable to generate any offense in game two and the Cougars scored a combined seven runs in the second and third innings to pick up the run-rule victory.

Moriah Maunu (Glencoe, Minn./Glencoe-Silver Lake) was tagged with the loss after getting the start in the circle. The freshman also picked up UNW's lone hit in the contest.

The Eagles will head home to Reynolds Field to welcome Martin Luther Saturday in their final UMAC series of the regular season. First pitch is slated for 1 p.m. Fans can find more information on the softball program at www.unweagles.com.
