Warriors Just Miss Sweep of DMACC

Ottumwa -- Indian Hills ended DMACC's season-opening 14-game winning streak, but couldn't make it back-to-back wins against the Bears in softball action at Hellyer Field on Tuesday.

Behind the shutout pitching of Kendle Schieber, the Warriors handed DMACC a 5-0 loss in the opener.  But IHCC failed to hold an early 4-0 lead in the nightcap and the Bears recovered to win 5-4.

Schieber helped herself with a two-run single to open the scoring in game one.  Carrie Hudson later added a two-run homer for an even bigger cushion.

Kaitlyn Matzen then got the Warriors off to a good start in the next game with a three-run home run in a four-run 3rd inning.  The Bears, however, battled back against three IHCC pitchers.  An unearned run against reliever Megan Brady was the game-winner in the 7th. 

Felisha Durflinger joined Schieber with two hits in the first game and Durflinger and Cheyenne Ellis had two-hit games in game two.

Indian Hills takes part in a tournament hosted by Central CC in Columbus, Nebraska this weekend.
