Junior first baseman Kayla Konwent had three hits, including her 15th home run of the season, as the University of Wisconsin softball team beat Indiana 8-0 in a rule-shortened five-inning game on Sunday to complete a three-game sweep at Goodman Field.
Konwent’s solo shot started a three-run third inning for the Badgers (33-8, 10-5 Big Ten Conference) against the Hoosiers (31-18, 6-11). Ensuing runs came in on junior right fielder Caroline Hedgcock’s RBI single and senior left fielder Kelly Welsh’s bases-loaded walk.
Singles from junior second baseman Jordan Little, Welsh and Konwent along with one error and three walks contributed to the decisive five-run fifth inning.
