MURFREESBORO, Tenn. — Middle Tennessee softball entered the seventh inning with the lead on Friday night at Blue Raider Softball Field, but could not complete the game, as a two-run top of the seventh from Western Kentucky pushed WKU past MTSU, 4-3.
The Blue Raiders (25-14, 5-7 C-USA) struck first in the bottom of the first inning, converting a pair of singles from Shelby Echols and Laura Mealer into two runs when Riley Gilmore singled up the middle to drive them in from second and third. A perfect sacrifice bunt from Ava Tepe set up the two-RBI single.
