MARSHFIELD — Megan Donahue tossed a five-inning no-hitter and hit a home run to lift the Marshfield softball team to a 10-0 nonconference victory over Holmen on Friday at the Marshfield Fairgrounds.

Donahue hit a home run for the second-straight day and also had a triple and four RBIs for the Tigers (5-3).

Jenna Jakobi went 3-for-3 and scored twice and now has hits in her last seven at-bats. Emily Draeger also added a pair of hits, two RBIs, and three runs scored for Marshfield.

Only one Holmen batter reached base, which came on an error.

Marshfield is at Merrill on Tuesday.
