Ellis softball advances to regional semifinals

The Ellis softball team has advanced to the semifinals of the Lincoln 2-1A regional after a 15-0, three inning run-rule win over Bennington Monday.

The Railers explode for eight runs in the first inning, then added two in the second and five in the third.

Brittany Bollig had three of the Railers six hits and drove in five. Skylar Gottschalk knocked in three.

Gottschalk allowed just one hit, striking out three and walking one for the win as Ellis improves to 9-10.

The Railers will now play No. 2 seed Salina-Sacred Heart Tuesday at 4:45 in Lincoln. The Knights received a first-round bye.
