The Lincoln-Way West varsity softball team continued its dominant start to the 2026 season on Saturday morning, traveling to Plainfield North and delivering a decisive 9-0 shutout victory in non-conference action.

With the win, Lincoln-Way West improved to a flawless 4-0 on the year, showcasing a remarkable balance of explosive offense and stifling pitching. The visitors have been an unstoppable force in the early weeks of the season, outscoring their first four opponents by a staggering 47-7 margin.

Plainfield North, suffering its first setback of the spring, dropped to 2-1 overall following the home defeat.

While detailed, play-by-play statistics from the contest were not reported, the final 9-0 tally reflects another commanding performance by the Lincoln-Way West pitching staff and defense, who successfully kept the host lineup entirely off the scoreboard for the duration of the contest.
