SB: Bulldogs' streak snapped by Briar Cliff

Article Body

The Concordia University softball team had its 15-game winning streak snapped Sunday with a two-game sweep at the hands of the Briar Cliff Chargers in Sioux City, Iowa.

The Bulldogs' bats were rendered nearly silent by the Chargers pitching staff as Concordia managed only six hits in game one and five hits in game two. In game one the Chargers were able to score four runs on three hits and an error in the bottom of the fourth innings and the Bulldogs wouldn't be able to close the gap, dropping game one 4-3.

In the second game, a 3-0 loss for the Bulldogs, Concordia twice stranded runners on third allowing the Chargers to hold Concordia scoreless for only the second time all season. Freshman Nikki Baker was the only Bulldog have multiple hits in both games.  She went 2-for-4 with a run scored and an RBI in game one as well as going 2-for-3 in game two.

The Bulldogs look to bounce back and finish the regular season strong as they welcome Mt. Marty to Plum Creek Park for a 5 p.m. double header Monday, April 28.
