Last Time Out
The Lindenwood Softball team got back into the win column on Wednesday night with a 1-0 shutout victory over Saint Louis at home. Samantha Roulanaitis pitched a complete game for the Lions, and carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning. Roulanaitis ended the game by allowing just one hit and recording three strikeouts to pick up her second win of the 2026 season. Offensively, Lindenwood had nine hits and were led by Madisen Noll and Anna Sanders who each went 2/3 at the plate. The only run of the game was scored in the bottom of the seventh inning when Sadie Sexauer was hit by a pitch with the bases loaded and two outs to end the game in walk-off fashion.
