Jennies softball saw their 2009 season come to an end in heartbreaking fashion Saturday afternoon, May 9th, after dropping a 3-1 decision to Missouri Western (46-11) in a 10 inning elimination game at the NCAA-II South-Central sub-regional in Durant, Oklahoma.

Kellie Kurka had a solo homerun in the first inning to put the Jennies up 1-0. It was a lead that lasted until the bottom of the seventh as the Griffons tied the game to force extra innings. The game was postponed for 30 minutes entering the ninth inning, due to lightning in the Durant area. The game resumed with a scoreless inning in the ninth to force another extra frame. Missouri Western won the game with a Brittany Douglass two-run homerun off of Megan Leonard in the bottom of the 10th inning.

Leonard struck out 11 and scattered 10 hits over 9.1 innings pitched. Douglas’s home run was only the third home run Leonard gave up on the season. The Griffons Allison Jones also had an impressive pitching performance limiting the Jennies to five hits and striking out six in a 10 inning complete game.

The Jennies, who fell 1-0 to host Southeastern Oklahoma State in a first round game Friday,May 8th, finished the season with a record of 36-14 and were the MIAA regular season champs.
