RENO, Nev. – Boise State hit three home runs and knocked off Nevada 7-5 in the opener of a three-game Mountain West softball series, Friday.
Â
The Broncos (27-19, 7-7 MW) jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first inning. After a single by Sophia Knight, a pair of walks loaded the bases. Alycia Flores drove in a run with a ground out and Leah McAnally doubled in two runs with two outs.
Â
In the fourth, Jordyn Hutchins and McAnally hit back-to-back home runs to make the score 5-0. Mykenzie Hanna added a home run in the fifth and Flores doubled home a run to increase the lead to 7-0.
Â
"We started fast and that was a key for us today," head coach Justin Shults said. "We played solid defensively and Taylor Caudill got some big outs when she needed them."
Â
The Wolf Pack stormed back with four runs in the fifth and added a run in the sixth to close within 7-5.
Â
In the seventh, Nevada (35-12, 11-6) put two runners on with two outs, but Caudill (15-11) induced a ground out to end the game.
