MOUNT PLEASANT, Mich. – The Toledo softball team closed out its mid-week series against Central Michigan with a doubleheader loss on Wednesday afternoon. The Chippewas posted a 10-2 run-rule victory in the opener and rallied to win the nightcap 6-3.

Senior Aubrey Reed cranked out three hits, including her fifth homer of the season, and an RBI to lead the Rockets in the doubleheader. Sophomore Jenna Kroll had two hits, including her sixth home run of the season, and two RBIs.

CMU's Kaitlyn Bean earned the win in Game One by allowing only two runs in seven hits. Grace Lehto picked up the win for Game Two allowing three runs on five hits in a complete-game performance.

Toledo and Central Michigan were tied 1-1 through the first two innings until the Chippewas pulled away. The Chippewas scored two runs in the third and five in the fourth. CMU closed out the scoring with single runs in the fifth and sixth.

Reed got Toledo' offense rolling in the second game with a leadoff homer and senior Aleah Marra's sacrifice fly put the Rockets up 2-0. Kroll brought around one more run in the third before Central Michigan answered with three runs in the fourth to tie the game 3-3. The Chippewas tied the game in the fourth and added three more runs in the fifth and sixth to register a 6-3 win and sweep the series.
