It took 11 innings, but Iowa State did something only three other teams in the country have done this season.
Beat Oklahoma State.
The No. 3 ranked Cowgirls fell 3-2 to the Cyclones at home in their series finale on Sunday afternoon.
“Just got beat, fair and square,” coach Kenny Gajewski said. “How we respond will be the next question as we go on into next week.”
Gajewski credited the Cyclones' gritty performance to senior pitcher Ellie Spelhaug, who pitched 7.2 innings, allowing three hits and zero runs.
“I thought Sphelhaug really had us in knots,” Gajewski said.
