Eagles split with visiting North Central Lions

The Eagles softball team used a resilient effort to pick up its first win of the season Friday afternoon, bouncing back from a 10-1 loss in first game of a double-header to earn a 4-3 victory over visiting North Central Texas College.

Victory did not come easy, though, as the Eagles had to hold off a late charge from the Lady Lions to pick up the win. NTCC led 4-0 heading into the seventh inning only to see the Lady Lions score three runs to cut the deficit to a single run.
