MILWAUKEE - The Wisconsin Lutheran College
softball team had just two hits, but capitalized on five Concordia
University Wisconsin errors en route to defeating the visiting

Conference doubleheader at Warrior Field.
Concordia Wisconsin scored its only run of the game right away
in the first inning on an RBI sacrifice fly from Emily Bennin that
plated Stephanie Brunette. Wisconsin Lutheran went down in order
its first two innings before tying the game at 1-1 in the third
when freshman Daetona Laurence (Wildomar, Calif./California
Lutheran) crossed home plate after senior Jenny Boelk (Fond du Lac,
Wis./Winnebago Lutheran) reached safely on an error.
The Warriors grabbed a 2-1 lead in the fourth on a Maggie
Mueller (Campbellsport, Wis./Campbellsport) RBI single that plated
junior Katie Sloan (Omaha, Neb./Nebraska Lutheran). Following a
scoreless fifth, WLC added an insurance run in the sixth as
sophomore Stephanie Sack's (Granger, Ind./Michigan Lutheran)
sacrifice fly scored Sloan.

during game one. Sloan scored two runs, while Laurence added the
third. Mueller and Sack also added both of the team's RBIs.
