Softball Wraps Up Series Looking for Sunday Win

HUNTINGTON, W. Va. – App State Softball will look to close a Sun Belt Conference road series at Marshall with a win Sunday after dropping a 6-0 decision Saturday afternoon.

Kayt Houston led App State with two hits and reached base three times during a game that was tight most of the way. The Mountaineers (19-26, 4-16) trailed 1-0 before Marshall (23-24, 9-11) extended its lead in the bottom of the fifth inning. To that point, starting pitcher Delani Buckner had allowed only five hits, with center fielder Addie Wray making a leaping grab near the wall to rob the Thundering Herd of extra bases.
