Stadium 6 Bellarmine 0

The Bellarmine Lions hung around with the top team in the league Stadium for much of the game, but in the end Stadium proved to be too much to handle as they dropped their second league game of the season Monday.

The Lions were within striking distance most of the game, only down one run for the first three innings, and down four through the first six. The Lions even mounted a mini rally in the 5th inning, collecting three straight hits off of one of the leagues best pitchers, but they were unable to cross the plate, as they had one runner thrown out at the plate, and another stranded at third. For the game, the Lions collected 5 hits, all by different players.

Bellarmine pitcher Anna Olson fell to 2-2 on the year, pitching a complete game. Only 3 of the 6 runs scored off of Olson were earned, as the Lions committed 4 errors in the game.

Bellarmine plays Wilson, the other top team in the league on Wednesday at Bellarmine.
