AKRON, Ohio - Grace Hollopeter hit a home run on the first pitch of the game on Tuesday (April 16), but Purdue Fort Wayne softball fell to Akron 7-1.

Gracie Brinkerhoff threw all six innings for the Mastodons but took the loss. Haley Croyle got the win for Akron in 4.1 innings of work.
Purdue Fort Wayne falls to 9-29. Akron improves to 19-23. The Mastodons will be back to Horizon League play this weekend when they visit Detroit Mercy.
