In their final softball game of the fall, the Missouri Tigers bats came out loud. Missouri outscored Central Methodist 17-1 in the Oct. 30 scrimmage.

Catcher Julia Crenshaw got things going with a solo home run to dead center in the bottom of the first. Freshman third baseman Saniya Hill ripped a two-run triple and shortly after sophomore first baseman Abby Hay hit a two-run homer.

Things kept rolling with another solo-homer from Madison Walker, which was followed by another triple, this time from freshman infielder Kadence Shepherd. Shepherd lated added on with an inside-the-park home run to make it 14-0.

It wasn't until the top of the ninth that Central Methodist earned a run of their own. It came in the form of a solo home run.

The Tigers are done until their season officially starts on Feb. 7, 2025.
