Edina one-hits Minneapolis Southwest in a 2-0 defeat on Tuesday night.

After starting the spring with 11-straight victories, the Lakers managed just one hit—a fifth-inning double from Megan Leverenz—in the loss. Kieski also walked once, with Rachel Polland walking twice.

Southwest pitcher Melissa Mosher earned the hard-luck loss despite giving up just one earned run on the night.
