MEMPHIS, Tenn. – The Drake University softball team finished play at the Blues City Classic in Memphis, Tenn. this morning with an 8-0 loss to SIUE (6-11). Drake's defeat marked their second loss to the Cougars at the Blues City Classic and ended a two-game winning streak.
Drake (4-10) managed just one hit in a game controlled by the SIUE defense. The Bulldogs were kept off the basepaths until the bottom of the fourth inning when Hailee Lehman singled back up the middle. A fly out and double play quickly stifled any opportunity for the Bulldogs to mount a rally.
