FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ORANGE, CA – The Chapman University softball team extended its winning streak to nine games with victories over Rhode Island College, 10-0, and Illinois College, 8-1, as part of its own Sun West Tournament at Hart Park on Monday afternoon. The Panthers have won 16 of their past 17 games and are averaging 7.5 runs per game this season.
