After Minot answered with a run in the third, Mankato responded with two runs in the fourth and another pair in the sixth to build an 8-7 advantage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Olivia Pichardo (University of California) led the offense with a perfect 4-for-4 performance, scoring three runs and driving in two. Sailor Hall (Pittsburgh State University) also had a standout day at the plate, finishing 3-for-4 with two doubles and a game-high four RBIs. Alexis Duke (Augustana College, IL) added a hit and a run scored.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hall made the start in the circle, tossing four innings with three strikeouts. Addie Garr (Augustana College, IL) came on in relief and shut the door, allowing just one hit and one unearned run over the final three innings while striking out four to earn the win.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Habaneros totaled nine hits and held off a late Honeybees push to secure the 8-7 victory and end the road trip on a high note.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mankato will face the Honeybees again Monday in Minot looking to build momentum in its next matchup.
