“Cooper stayed in it until the end, but St. John’s pulled away late for a 17-7 victory,” said Coach Nicole Hedden. “The Dragons collected six hits and St. John’s had eight in the high-scoring game. Madison Rogers led Cooper with two hits in three at-bats. Dragons stole four bases during the game as two players stole more than one with Ally Flinn leading the way with two.
