Softball Tops Akron 7-2 At Bruin Classic
W: Badgley, Abbott (4-2) L: Otani (0-4)
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Freshman Addie Welsh hit her first career homer, scoring twice and driving in a pair and fellow frosh Abbott Badgley held Akron to two unearned runs as the duo helped Bradley Softball to a 7-2 victory over the Zips Friday at the Bruin Classic.
Bradley (11-10 overall) opened the scoring with a run in the bottom of the first. Keeler van Breusegen singled for her third hit of the day and stole second. The Braves had two on after freshman Katie Pederson drew a walk and senior Samantha Smith drove in van Breusegen with a single to center to give Bradley an early 1-0 lead.
