Some clutch hitting in the 6th and stellar defense in the bottom of the 7th, combined with the 10-strikeout pitching of Willa Risinger, propelled the Chippewa Falls(16-7, 12-1) to a 4-1 win over Eau Claire North(9-9, 5-7) and their 19th Big Rivers conference championship in the past 27 years.

5/14/26 Softball: Stanley-Boyd 9, McDonell Lady Macks 4
In a winner-take-all battle for the conference crown, the Lady Macks (15-6-1, 12-2 Western Cloverbelt Conference) grabbed two runs early against the Orioles (16-1, 13-1 WCC), but struggled to garner base runners during the remainder of the contest.
Stanley-Boyd broke through with a 5-run inning in the fourth to take the lead for good, and McDonell's late comeback bid was stymied.
Junior Lizzy Leibrandt laced a 2-run double in the first, for one of the Lady Macks' four hits on the night.
