CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- WKU softball recorded its fifth shutout victory on the year Sunday as the Lady Toppers captured the series finale over Charlolte, 4-0, at the Phillips Softball Complex.
In the circle, junior Kathryn Downing turned in one of the best showings of her collegiate career as the Bowling Green-native recorded her second career two-hit performance on her way to her fifth complete game and second shutout victory on the year.
WKU's scoring started early as a lead-off single from freshman Bryce Holmgren in the top of the first, followed by a two-run shot from senior Brooke Holloway gave the Lady Toppers their first lead of the weekend as WKU went up 2-0.
