Rock Bridge softball wins first ever state title
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (KMIZ)
The Rock Bridge softball team beat Lee's Summit North, 1-0, on Friday to capture its first ever state championship. It's also the first time a Columbia high school has ever won a state softball title.
The Bruins finished the season a perfect 29-0. Rock Bridge pitcher Ella Schouten pitched a complete game shutout in her final game in a Bruin uniform.
Rock Bridge's Maddie Snider broke up the Lee's Summit North no-hitter in the sixth inning with a triple. Later in the inning, Cydney Fullerton brought Snider home with a sacrifice fly. That would be the deciding run.
