CONRAD - The unbeaten NICL West campaign continued for the BCLUW softball team, escaping with a narrow 1-0 win over AGWSR.
  
An unearned run in the host’s half of the third inning was the game winner. BCLUW’s Parker Scurr coaxed a base-on-balls to begin the at bat, took second and third with sac-bunts by Kiersten Kruse and Olivia Hughes, and scored when Easton Swanson’s ground-ball was mishandled.
  
The one-run win was the Comets’ fourth in league play and third 1-0 victory along with West Marshall and Grundy Center.
