Game 1: CSU-Pueblo 9, Chadron State 1  (6 innings)

Game 2: CSU-Pueblo 5, Chadron State 2

The ThunderWolves softball team remained hot while playing at home with a doubleheader sweep of the Chadron State College Eagles.  In the opener, CSU-Pueblo sophomore pitcher Justine Bosio (So., Santa Barbara, Calif.) pitched one of her best collegiate games, allowing just one run on one hit, the solo hit came in the top of the 3rd inning on a leadoff homerun, the only blemish Bosio would allow all day. The offense began early when Annalyse Garcia (Fr., Frederick, Colo.) got a one-out base hit followed with an RBI-double to right-centerfield for Bo Nuanez (Sr., Lafayette, Colo.), scoring Garcia, with another base hit for an RBI by Lacey Chesser (Fr., Oxnard, Calif.) giving the Pack the early 2-0 lead.  Gathering five more runs in the next few innings the Pack headed into the bottom of the sixth with a 7-1 lead when Bosio blasted a one-out 2-run homerun to leftfield to raise the Pack to the 8-run rule victory.

Game two starting pitcher Kyla Nelson (So., Lakewood, Colo.) gave up three doubles and a base hit, was touted with the two runs on four hits wit two walks.  Nelson allowed the first two batters to reach base and Bosio was called to come on in relief, quickly shutting the Eagles down scattering three hits in 5 innings of relief to pick up the win, improving to a RMAC best 15-4 on the year.  With the two wins CSU-Pueblo improves to 22-10 and 18-8 in league play and will play host to Nebraska-Kearney in a doubleheader Saturday, first pitch scheduled for 2 pm. 

Prior to the start of the doubleheader, CSU-Pueblo head softball coach Shane Showalter was honored by the team and assistant coach Stephanie Hughes for getting his 186th victory last Sunday as the Pack head coach, which puts him atop the all-time wins list at CSU-Pueblo. With todays victories, Showalter is at 188 victories.
