The Short Story: Williams Softball's first win of the season was earned in Redlands, CA today. First-year
Sadie Leonard earned her first collegiate win, and
Sydney Fleming hit the team's first homerun of the season. The Ephs collected twelve hits in game game one, then faltered in the nightcap, losing 0-7.
Coach's Take: "It's great to get a win with a true team effort.
Adhya Tandon pitched well to open the game and Sadie came in and pitched her way out of a few tough situations to get her first, and our first win. We'd like to score more than three runs when we get twelve hits, but we'll take the result." Head Coach
Kris Herman
