WINONA, Minn. — If there was one sure thing about the Saint Mary’s University fastpitch softball team’s nonconference doubleheader against UW-River Falls, it was that no lead was a sure thing. The Falcons raced out to a seven-run lead in the opener, and had to hold on for dear life, as SMU pulled to within two — and left the bases loaded in the bottom of the sixth inning — in falling to UW-River Falls 7-5. And in the nightcap, UW-RF again raced out to a huge lead, this time a 7-1, second-inning cushion, only to have SMU score nine unanswered runs and take a two-run, 10-8 lead into the top of the seventh — where Mindy Rudiger belted a three-run home run over the center field fence to complete the Falcons’ sweep, 11-10.

ST. PAUL, Minn. — For the third time this season — and the second time in the last three days — the Saint Mary’s University fastpitch softball team squared off against a nationally ranked team when the Cardinals took the field for Saturday’s Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference doubleheader against eighth-ranked St. Thomas. And, unfortunately for SMU, the third time was no charm, as the Tommies threw back-to-back shutouts at the Cardinals, rolling to 7-0 and 8-0 wins in the teams’ conference finale.

WINONA, Minn. — The Saint Mary’s University fastpitch softball team stepped out of the frying pan that is the grueling Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference schedule. And right into the fire. The Cardinals took a “break” from their conference slate Thursday at the SMU Field, but there was no resting, as SMU squared off against UW-Eau Claire — last year’s NCAA Division III national champions and this year’s 18th-ranked team in the nation. And the Blugolds’ offensive attack was certainly national-championship caliber, as UW-Eau Claire burned the Cardinals for 11 Game 1 runs en route to an 12-1, five-inning victory, then completed the sweep with a 9-1 triumph in the nightcap.
