The Butler softball team started their season off on a positive note at the Total Control Sports Invitational in Rosemont, Ill. The Bulldogs went 3-2 on the long weekend.
The Bulldogs won the first game in thrilling fashion, as junior outfielder Sarah Dixon launched a ground-rule walk-off double to beat Miami (Ohio) University 13-12 on Friday. The Bulldogs then came from behind to beat University of Detroit Mercy 9-8 later in the day.
