The Prescott Softball team swept Northwestern in a doubleheader on Saturday, winning 6-5 and 15-4. In game one, the Cardinals scored twice in the first inning, traded runs in the second, then after the Tigers tied the score in the top of the third, plated another run in the bottom of the inning to lead 4-3 through a wild first three innings. Northwestern then would get out in front scoring a pair of runs in the top of the fourth inning, but the Cardinals came back and scored two runs in the bottom of the inning to get to the final run total, and the Cardinals would hold on for the victory. Aubree Kellogg went 2-3 at the plate driving in a run, while Quinn Unser went 2-3 driving in two, and Ella Visger and Grace Ptacek shared pitching duties in the circle.
In game two, Prescott fell behind 1-0 going into the bottom of the third inning, but they would not have a scoreless inning after that going into the seventh. Seven batters had two hits in the game for the Cardinals, including Avayah Patnode, Cadyn Hillebrand, Kenned Holub, Delaney Nelson, Talli Roth, Isabel Thoen, and Quinn Unser, while Hillebrand drove in three and Roth drove in four. Visger and Makayla Johnson shared pitching duties. Prescott is now 3-2 on the season, and take on Bloomer at home today.
