INDIANAPOLIS ? The South Dakota State softball team completed a three-game sweep of IUPUI on Saturday with a 7-2 win to improve to a perfect 3-0 in Summit League play after one weekend.
The Jacks improve to 6-20 overall with win heading into Tuesday's doubleheader at Nebraska.
Pam Nicholson went the distance for the Jackrabbits, scattering four hits, while striking out five and walking two in getting the win, which improves her record to 3-5.
Brittany Postma did most of the damage on offense, going 2-for-4 at the plate with a double and a homerun with three RBI and two runs scored. Stacey Evans also finished the game 2-for-4 and added a pair of RBI, while Ashley Durazo went 2-for-4 with two runs scored. Kelsey Lunn went 1-for-4, but did knock in a pair of runs.
The Jags scored first with a single run on a leadoff homerun and led until the Jacks broke the game open in the top of the third with five runs on five hits and one IUPUI error.
Krystal Higgerson got things going with a leadoff double and then advanced to third on a Nicholson infield single.
Nicholson then stole second, but it did not matter, as Postma came up next and blasted a three-run shot over the right field fence to put the Jacks up for good at 3-1.
Durazo came up two batters later and reached on an error and then advanced to second on a Dani Broshar single to put runners on first and second with one out.
Two batters later, and with the runners now on second and third, Evans singled up the middle. Durazo and Broshar both scored on the play to put the Jacks up 5-1.
IUPUI got one back in the bottom of the fourth, but the Jacks added two more in the fifth to put the game on ice.
Postma opened the fifth with a double to right field and then advanced to third on a Brooke Postma groundout in the next at-bat.
Durazo came up next and reached on a fielder's choice before stealing second to put runners on second and third for Evans, who came through with a two-RBI single to left.
The Jacks return home to Brooking on Sunday, but return to the road on Tuesday for a doubleheader at Nebraska starting at 4 p.m.
