FORT COLLINS, Colo. – The Drake Bulldog softball team (10-10) concluded a weather-delayed Colorado State Rams Invitational today with a Monday afternoon contest. The Bulldogs could not keep up with the host Rams' potent offense as Drake faltered in the tournament finale.
Colorado State opened the scoring in the bottom of the first inning with a powerful display. Ashley York, Peyton Allen, and Molly Gates all homered for the Rams as they built a quick 4-0 lead.
The Bulldogs bounced back for a run of their own in the second as bunted in. The start to Drake's comeback effort was halted promptly, however, as the Rams added two more in their portion of the second inning.
