Central found itself in a 4-1 hole with two outs in the eighth inning of the second game against the Duhawks. Twin Cedars alumnus Coy Moore drove in the runner from second for the win on a walk off hit. The eight-game home stand for Central continues on Friday against Buena Vista University. The Dutch and Beavers will play at 3 p.m. on Central’s home field at the A.N. Kuyper Athletics Complex.

Six hits from shortstop Daria Parchert and an exhausting day’s work from pitcher Mariah Fritz helped lift the Central College softball team to a 7-6, 6-4 sweep of Buena Vista University Tuesday. Less than 48 hours after tossing nearly 10 innings in a sweep at Simpson College Sunday, Fritz (7-4) cranked out 223 pitches over 13.2 innings Tuesday. The Dutch improved to 12-4 overall and 4-0 in American Rivers play. Parchert was 4-for-4 in the opener and 6-for-7 on the day, raising her average to .389. The schedule ramps up for the Dutch, who are slated to play 20 games in 22 days, starting with a non-conference twinbill Friday at 1 p.m. against North Central College in Naperville, Illinois.
