Maple Grove, MN- The Mount Mary softball team and Polars of Crown College connected for a doubleheader on Sunday. The host Polars took both games of the doubleheader, by scores of 21-1 and 7-1.
In game one, Crown began the scoring with a single run in the bottom of the 1st. The Crown offense then put up a big number in inning number 2, plating six runs to extend their lead to 7-0.
Crown was relentless for the rest of the game, defeating Mount Mary by a final score of 21-1. The Blue Angel run came in the top of the 5th, when Jodie Penman singled in Amanda Nance. Nance had reached on a double.
In the day's second game, Lily Day did a fine job in the pitching circle for MMU. The game stayed scoreless until the bottom of the 4th when Crown took a 3-0 lead.
The Polars would stretch their lead to 7-0 before MMU got on the board in the top of the 7th. Naomi Gomez came through with a rbi double to score Amanda Nance.
