CARBONDALE, Ill. -- UNI softball bats were roaring on Saturday with two wins against the Southern Illinois Salukis in a doubleheader matchup.
In what looked like a tale of two games, the Panthers were able to find runs in all sorts of different situations in two of three games in Carbondale. Despite being down by seven runs at the end of the second, UNI rallied back in the first game of the afternoon to take a 17-13 victory. It'd be a slightly different story in the second game as the Panthers would lead for five innings of play but had to defend against a Southern Illinois rally in the seventh to win 8-6.
