Anderson, S.C.-- The Lenoir-Rhyne Softball team dropped a pair of games at Anderson on Tuesday afternoon. In the first game, LR was held to just two hits as Anderson took the opener 5-1. In the night cap, Lani Warren hit her 6th home run of the season, but Trojans battled back and swept the doubleheader from the Bears with a 4-3 win.
