Lincoln-Way West Softball Edges Andrew 10-9 in Tight Conference Showdown
The Lincoln-Way West varsity softball team kept its unblemished road record intact on Wednesday afternoon, surviving a high-scoring conference battle to defeat host Andrew 10-9 in Tinley Park.
The narrow victory served as a crucial early-season conference test for Lincoln-Way West (11-3, 2-0). The visitors relied on a steady offensive attack to outlast Andrew in the one-run shootout, improving to a perfect 7-0 in away games this spring.
Andrew (6-5, 0-1) protected its home field fiercely, matching Lincoln-Way West blow for blow in what proved to be a highly competitive league matchup. The home squad brought plenty of offensive firepower to the diamond but ultimately fell just short of completing the upset.
Following the win, Lincoln-Way West continues to build momentum in the conference standings. The two division rivals are scheduled to clash again later this month, with Andrew set to travel to New Lenox for a rematch on April 29.
