Senior shortstop Morgan Smith fires a ball to first base at Wolverine Field on Wednesday versus BYU. She recorded seven assists in Wednesday's ballgame to help keep the Wolverines within striking distance against the Cougars.
Brigham Young's run in the top of the first inning would be all the Cougars would need in a 1-0 win over Utah Valley University softball Wednesday afternoon at Wolverine Field.
With the win, BYU improves to 24-17 overall on the season. The Wolverines fall to 6-33 with the loss.
"I was proud of our performance today. We did a nice job of working together and our pitchers did a great job of keeping their bats quiet," head coach Nikki Palmer said.
