NIC SOFTBALL: Cardinals swept by CSI in first SWAC twinbill since 2016
TWIN FALLS — Alli Drake led off the game with a home run, then hit a two-run shot in the seventh to give North Idaho College a 5-3 lead, but Southern Idaho’s Abbie Banning’s three-run walk off home run lifted the Golden Eagles over the Cardinals in the Scenic West Athletic Conference opener for both schools on Friday.
Katelyn Larney hit a two-run home run to tie the game at 3-3 in the sixth for NIC, which is returning to the conference this season after leaving in 2016 for the regional-based Northwest Athletic Conference.
In the nightcap, Larney hit a solo home run in the fifth inning for the Cardinals (8-8, 0-2 SWAC), who fell 9-1 in five innings.
