New faces in the circle and a run-rule on Saturday led to a 2-2 performance for the softball team at the Razorback Invitational this week.
The Shockers played several nationally ranked teams in Arkansas. Their first ranked match up came against No. 24 Illinois. They beat Illinois 8-3 on Friday. Freshman Alison Cooper threw a complete game in the circle and recorded first career start.
Neleigh Herring, Addison Barnard and Lauren Lucas all homered. Lucas recorded her first career home run.
Against Longwood, the Shockers didn’t get going offensively until the fifth inning with a homer and an RBI from Sydney McKinney.
