With the way this softball game was going, it only made sense that it came down to a 3-2 pitch with the bases loaded and two outs in the bottom of the seventh.
With two strong teams — with a combined record of 21-2 — battling in a 1-1 contest, Montini senior pitcher Lauren Trojnar needed to be on target with her 3-2 offering to St. Francis freshman Shelby Winkleman on Friday afternoon. Trojnar was indeed on target, but Winkelman slapped a hard grounder up the middle to bring home Bailey Zydek with the winning run in the 2-1 win by the Spartans (11-1, 2-0) in Wheaton.
