Softball Recap: Make It Four in a Row for Lampasas

They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 5-3 win over the East View Patriots on Tuesday. For the Badgers, this counts as revenge for the 8-2 victory the Patriots walked away with the last time they faced one another back in February of 2025.
