ORLANDO, Fla. -- Bradley Softball managed just five hits off South Alabama, but the Braves drew a school record 13 walks and two of the team's five hits were homers as BU topped the Jaguars 12-4 in five innings Friday afternoon to wrap up the first day of play at the Citrus Classic.
Sophomore Taise Thompson went 1-for-2 with a two-run homer and four RBI, while junior Sydney Young highlighted a five-run fifth with a two-run inside the park homer to help Bradley (7-9 overall) to its second run-rule victory of the day after the Braves opened the Citrus Classic with a 12-3 win over Purdue in the morning.
