Penn State softball splits doubleheader against Michigan State

Penn State’s series with the Michigan State Spartans was originally scheduled for April 16 through 18, but when positive coronavirus tests arose, the series was postponed. Nearly a month later, the two teams finally met in East Lansing.

Behind a strong performance by Kylee Lingenfelter, Penn State nabbed Game 1 of the doubleheader by a score of 4-3, but the Nittany Lions’ bats went cold in game two as they fell 4-0.

Ashley Miller was in the circle for Michigan State in Game 1 and worked a scoreless first inning despite a single from Kennedy Legg.

Countering Miller was Kylee Lingenfelter pitching for the Nittany Lions and the junior started the day with two first inning strikeouts.
