GAME ONE
Senior Sophie Frost posted her first complete game shutout of the season. In her third overall complete game, she was in a bit of a spot in the first inning with two runners on and just one out. But the Titans worked a 153 double play to get out of the inning. She settled in from there allowing just two more hits the rest of the way, one in the second and the other in the seventh game. She walked four batters and struck out four as well to earn her third win of the season.
