SMC opened game 4 by falling behind 5-0 as the North Dakota bats were in top form -- but the Purple Knights refused to lose. Ali relieved Meg O and quieted Dakota -- and the SMC's contact turned into basehits. Katelyn delivered her interpretation of "taking it easy" as per trainer instructions, colliding with the catcher in a play at the plate and jarring the ball free to score her first Varsity run. Trailing 5-4 with the bases loaded and Casey at the plate late in the game, Casey opted not to be patient and ripped a 3-run triple!! Ali finished strong for her first Varsity win at SMC as the Knights improved to 4-0.
