No. 15-ranked Tommie Softball (24-4, 11-1) got just 10 hits on the day from nine different players but it rode strong pitching to a 8-0, 3-2 home sweep of Concordia-Moorhead at South Field.
Freshman Kierstin Anderson-Glass took both pitching wins as she retired 27 of the 29 Cobbers she faced on the day over nine scoreless innings. She allowed one single and a batter who reached on a dropped third strike.
Anderson-Glass struck out 18 and walked none while allowing just the one hit. She started and threw five shutout innings in game one, and later took the win in relief in game two with four scoreless innings.
UST broke a 2-2 in the bottom of the sixth in game two as Micaela Trainor was hit by pitch, took third on a throwing error, and scored on Rachel Suter's sac fly.
The Tommies, who maintained two-game lead over Gustavus and St. Catherine, play two Sunday at Carleton (1 p.m.).
