Softball Recap: Michigan Lutheran Titans vs. Bangor Vikings
Michigan Lutheran had to start their season on the road in Saturday's first game, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They fell just short of the Bangor Vikings by a score of 5-3. Michigan Lutheran was given a dose of their own medicine in this game as Bangor apparently hadn't forgotten their defeat the last time these teams played back in April of 2017.

She struck out 12 batters over seven innings while giving up just one earned (and two unearned) runs off three hits (and only one walk).
