Warhawk softball downs LA Tech in scrimmage play

The ULM softball team took the field Friday night under the lights to face off against the Louisiana Tech Lady Techsters.

The Warhawks looked to start off strong this game and quickly put five runs on the scoreboard in the first inning. They remained sharp offensively driving in runs in the third and fourth and holding the Lady Techsters to only one run after the fourth inning.

The fifth inning in the game saw a lot of action as the Lady Techsters put up three runs, and the Warhawks put up four to bring the score to 7-4.

The Warhawks buckled down defensively though to shut the Lady Techsters out after the fifth inning. They then drove in three more runs in the seventh to help bring the final score to a 14-4 victory for the Warhawks.

Junior infielder Faith Bohack said, “We started off with a lot of energy this game and wanted to go out and simply have fun.”

Coach Lyons was also pleased with the way his team played.

“It was a great game and I’m proud of the girls for bouncing back,” Lyons said.

This marked the Warhawks’ last game of the fall 2014 scrimmage season.
