BLACKSBURG, Va. – The Radford softball program fell against a strong Virginia Tech foe Tuesday afternoon in a 12-1 final score.
The game got off to an electric start for the Highlanders, as sophomore Cori McMillan tagged her third home run of the season to dead center. The homer put the Highlanders up 1-0 early in the contest.
The Hokies potent offense retook the lead in the bottom of the first, and would pull ahead for the eventual victory in the fifth inning. Freshman Natalie Jones would put together 1.1 innings of one-run ball before the game ended. Kari Shedrick also added a hit, while McMillan collected a second hit to finish a perfect two-for-two on the day as well.
UP NEXT
Radford's attention will turn back to Big South play as the squad hits the road this weekend for another pivotal conference series. Radford and Campbell meet up for three games, kicking things off with a doubleheader on Saturday, April 22nd at 1 p.m.
