Grinnell softball team drops pair of MWC contests at Lake Forest

LAKE FOREST, Ill. - Grinnell College's softball team was right with Lake Forest College through four innings, but the host Foresters came through with timely hits and thwarted a rally for a 10-3 win in Friday afternoon's opener.
 
Lake Forest fed off that momentum in the second game, tallying 11 runs in the first inning on its way to an 11-3 victory.
 
Kami Anson '24 had a big offensive effort in the opener for Grinnell, going 3-for-3. Emma Nelson '23 added two hits.
 
Lake Forest scored twice in the first inning before Lizzy Vermeulen '24 cut the gap in half with a sacrifice fly to center field in the second. The Foresters gradually upped their lead, going ahead 7-1 through five innings.
 
Mary Webb '23 stopped the Foresters' surge with a two-run double in the sixth inning before Lake Forest added two in the bottom of the inning.
 
Grinnell pitcher Kathryn Vermeulen '24 fanned four batters in a complete-game performance.
 
Lizzy Vermeulen had two of Grinnell's seven hits in the second game.
 
After Lake Forest (16-10, 8-0 Midwest Conference) posted its big first inning, Grinnell scored twice in the second on Webb's two-run single. Taylor Durak '24 added an RBI double to right-center in the third for Grinnell (9-14, 3-3 MWC).
 
Maddy O'Bryan '24 was the pitcher of record for the Pioneers, who play a twin bill at Beloit College on Saturday.
