Boise State Rocks Louisiana Tech 11-3 in First Game

Boise State has defeated Louisiana Tech 11-3 in the first of a scheduled twin bill at Mountain Cove Field in Boise.

Mackenzie Whyte's solo homer in the first helped the Bronco cause right off the get-go.  In the second, Tazz Weatherly's grounder scored Devon Bridges who had singled to lead off the inning.  Kellie Caplan came up and singled to drive in Kelly Sweeney and then stole a base, putting her in position to score on a single by Holly Burke that Weatherly also scored on.

The Lady Broncos have blown it open in the third with a two-run homer by Christina Capobianco and a solo shot by Sweeney to make it 8-2.  Boise State added a run on Vanessa Alvarez's double down the left field line that scored Allie Crump in the fourth and two runners scored on an error following Caplan's sacrifice in the fifth.  Caplan finished the game a perfect 3-3 with an RBI and a run scored.

Crump allowed just three hits to pick up the victory for Boise State.  The two teams will play a second game shortly.
