UW-Platteville 7, CSS 4
The first inning was quiet for both teams with only one hit by the Saints. It wasn't until the third inning when the Pioneers (5-4) broke it open and scored six runs on the Saints, all of which were unearned. CSS did finish off the inning with a run scored by
Kari Breuer (White Bear Lake, Minn./White Bear Lake HS).
St. Scholastica was unable to scratch a run across again until the bottom of the fifth when they scored three runs off four hits. Unfortunately, those were the last runs scored of the game and the Saints took a 7-4 loss.
