Softball: Badgers sweep ACC-Big Ten Challenge Tournament

The University of Wisconsin Softball team (8-1) dominated at the ACC-Big Ten Challenge Tournament in Raleigh, North Carolina last weekend to continue their promising start to the 2019 season.

The Badgers began their weekend by defeating Pittsburgh University (1-8) by a score of 8–0 Friday. A continued dominant performance from the Wisconsin offense propelled the Badgers to victory.

A six-run lead composed in the second inning allowed the Badgers to assert their dominance early.

Senior Kelly Welsh and freshman Jolie Fish started out the inning with consecutive base hits. The first RBI of the game would go to first baseman Stephanie Lombardo as she singled to score Welsh.
