Coach LePrwose stated, “In game one against NDSCS, we did not hit the ball well at all. Their pitcher did a good job of hitting her spots and keeping our hitters off balance. In game two against Miles City, we hit the ball better and did a great job of limiting the Pioneers chances offensively. We held them to 4 hits. In game three, we hit the ball very well and executed offensively very well. It was a great weekend of softball for us to kick off our 2020 season.”
