DURANGO, Colo. – Fort Lewis softball is heading back to the Front Range for its final four-game Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference series of the 2025 campaign this Friday and Saturday, with the Skyhawks (10-34, 9-30 RMAC) challenging the Rangers (17-30, 16-22 RMAC) at Regis University.

Last Time Out
The Skyhawks are fresh off a 3-1 series loss at home to Black Hills State (26-22, 24-16 RMAC). After the Yellow Jackets captured the first three games in the series, Fort Lewis responded in the final game of the series with 21 hits, including six doubles, for 15 runs batted in (RBI) and an explosive 15-7 victory. The Skyhawks offense matched the fourth-most hits, fifth-most doubles, and seventh-most RBIs in a game in program history.
