One day later, Sioux Falls (19-14, 7-1 NSIC) took the two-game set against BSU, rolling to shutouts of 6-0 and 8-0.

Bemidji State had just one extra-base hit in the four-game weekend — Morgan Benedict hit a double and later scored a run against the Mustangs in the 8-1 loss.

The Beavers are slated to host Minot State for a doubleheader at 1 p.m. on April 3, either at Chet Anderson Stadium or the BSU softball field. BSU will host U-Mary for a noon doubleheader the following day. Both of these series could be moved due to weather and field conditions.
