Softball. Big Hits Push Lipscomb Past WKU Wednesday

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – WKU softball dropped a pair of highly competitive contests to Lipscomb Wednesday evening at the WKU Softball Complex.

In total, the Bisons used a pair of home runs in order to notch six of their eight total runs on the day as Lipscomb (14-12) defeated WKU, 5-1, in the first game and shutout the Lady Toppers, 3-0, in the nightcap.

A single swing proved to be all the difference in the opening game of the midweek doubleheader as a grand slam from Lipscomb’s Sarah Higgins in the top of the fifth inning broke a 1-1 tie and gave the Bisons a commanding lead over the Lady Toppers.
