Panthers Clinch Series in Game Three, Defeat WSU 7-4

WICHITA, Kan. – The University of Northern Iowa softball team took their three game series against Wichita State with a game three victory, downing the Shockers 7-4 in the finale Sunday afternoon.

UNI (22-7, 2-1 MVC) hurt themselves defensively in the first inning as the Shockers took advantage of a Panther error with two outs, scoring a run to take an early lead. Cacy Williams extended their lead with a solo home run in the bottom of the third to grab a 2-0 advantage.

The Panthers got all the offense they would need in the fourth inning as Alyssa Buchanan's fourth home run of the season tied things up as she recorded her 17th and 18th RBI of the year.
