LAS VEGAS -- The BYU softball team split road games with UNLV losing 3-2 the first game, but answered with a 10-4 victory at Eller Media Stadium on Thursday.

With the split, the Cougars post a 32-17, 9-8 MWC record, while UNLV is 23-34, 5-13 MWC.

In game one, BYU sophomore Paige Paramore doubled to right center to knock in the only two BYU runs of the game in the top of the fifth inning.

The Rebels responded from their two-run deficit in the bottom of the sixth inning to score three runs off of one Cougar error to capture the 3-2 win.

BYU pitcher Brooke Boyce (12-8) pitched a complete game for the Cougars and recorded the loss, while UNLV pitcher Kacey Ellis (3-9) got the win for the Rebels.

In the second match up, UNLV got out to a quick two-run lead after the bottom of the first inning as they capitalized on two Cougar errors.

The Cougars rallied back to register a nice three-run top of the third inning as sophomore Ashlyn Russell started the inning out with a double. With one out, senior Belinda Osborn reached base on a bunt and junior Debbie Dodds followed with a double to right field, bringing in Russell for the first BYU run of the game. A Rebel fielding error allowed Kate Walker to get on base and in the process scored Osborn. Freshman Jodi Norton brought in the third run of the inning off a sacrifice fly to right field to score Dodds.

BYU added another run in the top of the fifth inning to take a 4-2 lead as Osborn was brought home off another sacrifice fly from Norton.

The Cougars expanded their lead to 9-2 after a five-run top of the sixth inning highlighted by a three-run home run from Ashlyn Russell, her 11th homer of the year.

In the seventh frame, Dodd's second double of the game scored Osborn to give BYU an eight-run advantage.

UNLV added two more runs in the bottom of the seventh inning off a two-run home run from Amy Lewis, but it wasn't enough as BYU got the 10-4 win.

Cougar pitcher Niki Andersen (17-6) started on the mound for BYU to pitch a three-hitter in five innings allowing no earned runs. She was relieved in the bottom of the sixth inning by Ariel Capra. Andersen got the win, while UNLV's Becky McDonald (2-8) got the loss.

BYU will travel to California to take on the tough San Diego State squad on Saturday, May 8 in a doubleheader starting at 1 p.m. The San Diego State series will complete BYU's final conference games of the regular season.
