The Lady Dinos softball team hosted the Gunnison Valley Bulldogs on Wednesday, falling 6-4 in a low-scoring contest. This came after a high-scoring 19-14 loss against the Emery Lady Spartans earlier in the week. Despite taking an early 2-0 lead, the Dinos were unable to hold off a late Gunnison rally and ultimately came up short.

In the bottom of the first, Shayla Penovich's single brought home Brailee Peterson and Aleece Ardohain to give Carbon a 2-0 lead. The Dinos were quiet until the fourth, when Kadence Vea's single scored Kennlee Kennedy and Vea to put Carbon up 4-3. But Gunnison answered with three runs in the fifth to take a 6-4 lead that they would hold onto for the win. Alexa Jones went 3-5 for the Dinos, while Penovich, Kennedy, and Vea also had multiple hits.
