The St. Edward’s University softball team won four games and lost one over the weekend in the Desert Stinger Classic in Las Vegas.

The Hilltopper’s first game on Feb. 11 against Adams State was the team’s only loss of the weekend. The game started as a slugfest as both the Hilltoppers and the Grizzlies scored frequently, but the Hilltoppers could not keep up. The Grizzlies won, 15-6.

The Hilltoppers bounced back in the team’s second game of the day, beating Fort Lewis College in a 13-3 run-rule victory in only five innings.

Games on day two of the tournament started a bit more slowly. St. Edward’s rallied in its games against Western New Mexico and Regis, winning 4-3 and 3-1, respectively.

In the final game of the tournament Sunday afternoon, the Hilltoppers defeated Chadrom State College 10-1. Junior Paige Sandahl lead the Hilltoppers struck out 10 batters and allowed only three hits.

“As a team, we re really happy with how we have preformed lately,” sophomore Marissa Thome said.

The Hilltoppers are currently 6-3. The team will play its first home game Friday at 1 p.m. against Incarnate Word at Diane Daniels Field.
