DURHAM, N.C. – The NC State softball team closed out its fall schedule on Saturday afternoon with a 1-1 tie (10-inn) against Duke at Duke Softball Stadium in Durham, N.C.

Timberlyn Shurbutt and Haylee Kobziak tallied the team's other two hits in the contest, and both were two-out doubles.
Sydney Nester threw the first seven innings, giving up a total of seven hits and striking out five. Kama Woodall closed out the contest, and didn't allow another hit in the contest while striking out a pair of batters.
The team's schedule for the 2019 regular season will be released later this fall.
