Huskies take down Bemidji State, Concordia-St. Paul to close Kelly Laas Memorial Tournament
ST. CLOUD, Minn. – St. Cloud State Softball (4-0, 0-0 Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference) continued its perfect start to the new season with a sweep of the second and final day of the Kelly Laas Memorial Tournament on Saturday in the Husky Dome in St. Cloud.

GAME ONE: ST. CLOUD STATE 9, BEMIDJI STATE 1 (6 INN.)
SCSU got on the board first with a three-run first inning after an RBI-single from redshirt junior infielder Grace Frechette (Forest Lake, Minn.) and a 2-RBI triple from sophomore infielder Grace Dahmen (Jordan, Minn.). The Beavers (0-4, 0-0 NSIC) cut their deficit to two after scoring a run in the top of the third, but the Huskies answered right back with a five-run bottom half.
