Softball games are smash hit on KCRG 9.2
College softball players rarely get a chance to play their games on live TV, but that changed Sunday at Coe College.
The doubleheader between Construction Materials and Hawkeye Convenience Stores in the new Iowa Women's Softball League was televised by KCRG 9.2 to a live audience in Eastern Iowa.
From all accounts, it was a smash hit.
The college athletes got a chance to showcase their skills on TV, the folks at KCRG 9.2 got a good show for their viewers, and the softball league got some terrific exposure.
Construction Materials swept the twinbill, 7-6 and 8-1.
Hawkeye Convenience Stores jumped out to a 6-0 lead after two innings in the first game, but Construction Materials scored five runs in the third inning to pull within 6-5.
It stayed that way until Alyssa Wiebel of Illinois State belted a two-run homer to left-center in the fifth inning to give Construction Materials a 7- 6 lead and the victory.
