CSU Softball vs UNLV | Full Game Highlights | Apr. 1, 2023

On Saturday, April 2, the Colorado State softball team (17-10, 3-3) hosted its first-ever home game, welcoming the UNLV Lady Rebels (16-17, 2-6) for the second of a three-game series. The action under the lights was a milestone for the program, seeing the stands packed with standing-room-only, and many fans scattered around the grass beyond the outfield wall, all joining the celebration in the Rams' new palace. Unfortunately, however, it did not lead to success on the field. UNLV plated six runners in the first inning, knocking CSU starter Julia Cabral out early. After an exchange of long balls by CSU’s Peyton Allen and UNLV’s April Visser in the third and fourth innings respectively, the breezy and cool evening became night, with the Lady Rebels up 7-2 entering the sixth. Two more runs would be added to the visitor's tally, and the Rams chances for a second-straight improbable comeback became very slim. Despite an attempted effort, CSU came up short 9-6, dropping the first two of the series. The green and gold would avoid the sweep though, taking Sunday’s bout 8-5. The Rams will now pack the bags for a west coast trip to San Jose to battle the Spartans, while the Lady Rebels return home for a date with the Fresno State Bulldogs.
