The Concord University softball team lost to Tusculum College at the
National Collegiate Sports Invitational for the second time in as many
days Tuesday evening, dropping a 9-1 decision to the Pioneers.
Senior Stephanie Harper went 3-for-3 to lead the Mountain Lions.
Freshman Kristi Benvenuto was 1-for-2 with a run-scoring double, her
third RBI of the season. Sophomore Whitney Carrigan added one hit and
one run scored.
Freshman pitcher Lacey McDougall (4-6) struck out a season-high eight
batters in the loss. McDougall also went 1-for-3 at the plate to extend
her hitting streak to five games.
McDougall and Tusculum (11-11) pitcher Elizabeth Johnson dominated the
game early on with each hurler allowing no runs and striking out four
batters in the opening two innings.
However, the Pioneers broke the game open in the third inning with a four-run frame that Concord was never able to recover from.
The Mountain Lions scored their only run of the game in the bottom of
the third when Benvenuto slapped her first double of the season to score
Carrigan, who reached base earlier in the inning after being hit by
pitch before being advanced to second off of a sacrifice bunt from
sophomore Hayley Wade.
Tusculum's bats lit up again during the sixth and seventh innings with five more runs en route to the 9-1 victory.
The Mountain Lions return to action in North Myrtle Beach, S.C. on
Wednesday against Cairn University at 2:30 p.m. followed by Eureka
College at 5:00 p.m. Concord's game against Spalding University (KY)
that was postponed today has been rescheduled for Friday.
