Lewiston,
Maine – Senior tri-captain Krissie
Whiting (Contoocock, N.H.) went 2-for-3 with three RBI, including the
game-winning hit and RBI in the bottom of the seventh inning to lead the Bates
College Bobcats to a 4-3 win in the first game and a sweep of the doubleheader
in (New England Small College Athletic Conference (NESCAC) East Division
softball action this afternoon at Lafayette Street Field.
Trinity falls to 5-18-1 overall and 1-5 in the NESCAC Easy with the
losses, while the Bobcats, who won the second game, 8-0, in five innings,
improve to 5-11 overall and 2-2 in the division.
Trinity
rallied back from a 3-1 deficit in the first game, scoring two ruins in the top
of the sixth inning when senior Susan
Kelly (Milford, Mass.) and freshman Alexandra
Costello (Andover, Mass.) each scored an unearned run off Bates senior
tri-captain starter Ginger Walsh (New
London, N.H.). Trinity freshman
Laura Watson (Carlisle, Mass.) singled and Kelly doubled to give
Trinity runners on second and third base in the top of the seventh frame, but
Walsh yielded a pair of grounders to third to keep the game tied entering the
bottom of the inning. Whiting
came up with one out in the bottom of the seventh inning and bases loaded, after
a double, a walk, and two fielder’s choice plays, and drove in her third run
of the game to win it for the Bobcats.
Walsh
recorded the win, allowing seven hits and one earned run, while Trinity freshman
right-hander Victoria Moshier (Old Saybrook, Conn.) surrendered nine hits in a
complete game effort. Trinity
senior co-captain Laura Heath (Windsor,
Conn.) accounted for the first Trinity run with an RBI double in the first
inning. Bates took the nightcap
with four unearned runs in a six run, fourth inning.
