5/19/26 Softball: Chippewa Falls Lady Cardinals 4, Eau Claire North 3

In their conference finale, the Lady Cards (17-7, 13-1 Big Rivers Conference) surrendered two leads to the young and talented Huskies (12-11, 5-9 BRC), who twice came back to tie, but Chi-Hi scored a late run in the 6th and shut the door in the 7th to garner the win and season sweep.

Senior pitcher Willa Risinger capped off the win with two strong innings of relief. Junior third baseman McKenna Benish went 3-for-3 on the night, while junior DP Laney Henkelmann and senior catcher Lauren Shepherd each picked up a pair of hits, with Henkelmann driving in two and Shepherd bringing in the winning run.
