Razorbacks start fast, take series from LSU

FAYETTEVILLE — The University of Arkansas softball team started strong just like it did Sunday, but found a way to finish Monday night at Bogle Park.

The No. 10 Razorbacks got a first-inning grand slam from Linnie Malkin to grab the lead and Chenise Delce pitched four scoreless innings of relief to secure the 7-3 win over No. 22 LSU and claim the SEC series.

Arkansas Coach Courtney Deifel said she loved how her team bounced back after dropping Sunday’s game to the Tigers.

“I just felt like we were locked in from the very first pitch … obviously jumping out ahead with the five in the first is huge,” Deifel said.
