Viera, Fla. -- Minnesota Crookston softball rounded out their trip to the Sunshine state on Tuesday morning with one game against Thomas More.

Thomas More would use two separate four run innings to defeat Minnesota Crookston, 8-3.

The Golden Eagles end their Florida trip with a 4-7 record.

Thomas More would load the bases with two outs in the inning and strike for four runs off of Charlotte Dombrowski (Sr., P, Valparaiso, Ind.), who made her first start of the season.

The Golden Eagles would make solid contact in the early portions of the game, but were unable to scratch a run across.

In the bottom of the third, Dombrowski would pull a rabbit out of her hat for the second straight inning, leaving the bases full of Saints and keeping the game at 4-0.

In the top of the fifth, the Golden Eagles would use some two out magic to cut the Saints lead in half, as Emily Kalina (Fr., OF/P, Rice Lake, Wis.) would drive a single to right field, scoring Madeline Murray (So., C/3B, Abilene, Kan.) and Irelyn Spencer (R-Jr., IF, Rapid City, S.D.).

Thomas More would answer right back, finding green grass and finishing the fifth inning with their second four run inning, giving them an 8-2 lead heading into the top of the sixth.

The Golden Eagles would put a threat together in the seventh and score a run on a Spencer fielder's choice, but could only get one, as they would fall 8-3.

Kalina had another fantastic day, finishing with two more hits, her third straight multi-hit game. Murray also had two hits in the game.

Dombrowski was good in the start, giving up five earned runs in 4.2 innings of work.
