BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – WKU softball rebounded from a tough opening day of the Holiday Inn Hilltopper Classic in order to notch victories over Missouri State and Austin Peay Saturday afternoon at the WKU Softball Complex. WKU used late-game heroics to edge Missouri State, 4-3, and then notched its second shutout victory on the year with a 5-0 triumph over Austin Peay.

After falling behind 2-0 after a half inning of play, WKU’s Brooke Holloway started the Lady Toppers day off with a bang in the home half of the first as the senior registered a lead-off solo home run to center field.
