There’s no place like home. The Kansas softball team is perfect when playing at Arrocha Ballpark. The Jayhawks won all four games this weekend in the Holiday Inn/Jayhawk Classic, beating Louisville and Southwest Missouri State twice each. On Friday, the Jayhawks were dominant at the plate. Kansas collected 24 hits during their victories against Louisville, with 12-2 in five innings, and Southwest Missouri State, winning 7-1. Against the Cardinals, the Jayhawks swatted a season-high 14 hits, including four home runs.

Serena Settlemier, junior pitcher, went five innings, giving up two runs and striking out five. Against the Bears, the Jayhawks got help from freshmen Elle Pottorf and Christina Ross, catcher and pitcher. Pottorf launched the Jayhawks to victory after a grand slam in the bottom of the third inning, giving the Jayhawks a 6-1 lead. Ross chipped in with a well pitched ball game striking out eight in seven innings. On Saturday, Kansas beat Louisville 4-2 and Southwest Missouri State 6-5 at home. Against the Cardinals, Kassie Humphreys, sophomore pitcher, led the team offensively with two hits and two RBI, while Settlemier and Ross carried the team on the mound. In the afternoon game against the Bears, the Jayhawks were running. They stole a season-high five bases while beating the Bears in eight innings.

The Jayhawks were scheduled to take on the Cardinals for a final time yesterday; however, the game was canceled because of cold weather.

Kansas improved to 14-8. The Jayhawks will leave Thursday for Sacramento, Calif., where they will participate in the Capital Classic March 18-20.
