Wichita State started their fall softball schedule at home with an 18-3 victory over Southern Nazarene on Saturday.

The Shockers jumped out to a 6-0 lead after two innings.

WSU starting pitcher Bailey Lange held the Crimson Storm in check in her return from a leg injury that kept her benched last season.

“At the end of the day, [Lange] is a great pitcher and somebody we missed last year,” Head Coach Kristi Bredbenner said of her senior pitcher.
