Softball Falls To Missouri St. At Valley Tourney

EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Taise Thompson drove in another run and pitched 2.1 scoreless innings out of the bullpen, but Missouri State took advantage of four Bradley errors to end the Braves season as the Bears posted a 6-4 victory Thursday night in the third round of the Missouri Valley Conference Championship.

After driving in all three Bradley (20-22 overall) runs in the day's first game, Thompson got the Braves on the scoreboard first with a RBI double in the top of the first. Vicki Zaluske was hit by a pitch and Thompson followed with her fifth double of the year to drive her in from first.
