The Arkansas National Guard started the Little Rock Air Force base softball season with a 15 – 5 victory Tuesday against the 19th Force Support Squadron.

The ANG showed dominance by scoring 10 runs alone in the first inning, with two of those runs coming from a home run. For the first two innings, the ANG held the 19th FSS scoreless.
The 19th FSS’s team members were in high spirits though, as they cheerfully joked about their strike out streak.

In the third inning, the ANG got another home-run. Determined not to be shut out, the 19th FSS finally got two team members home, making the score 13 - 2. Though the score showed defeat, the game wasn’t over and the 19th FSS continued to play hard, cheerful as they did when they started.

There were five innings, but the fourth inning brought the final runs of the game. The ANG were declared the winners 15 – 5 against the 19th FSS.
