GAME ONE RECAP

• In the second inning, Paige Eagleton got the first hit of the day with a double to left center. Kelly Hartman then stepped up to the plate and hit a blooper to center field to score Eagleton and put SU up 1-0 early against the nationally ranked Yellow Jackets.
• Randolph-Macon drew a lead-off walk to begin the third and advanced the baserunner to second on a passed ball. A Hornets error helped put R-MC on the board to tie the game. The visitors then took the lead on a double that barely hit the line in right field. By the end of the third, the Yellow Jackets had a 3-1 advantage.
• The Yellow Jackets added to their lead in the fourth inning with a lead-off solo home run that dipped just below the scoreboard in left field.
• Down to their final six outs, and down 4-1, the Hornets needed a comeback and were helped out by an Allison McQueeney lead-off single. McQueeney then stole second and was pushed to third on a single from Brenna Westwood. The two of them crossed the plate on a Tiffany Bower double to the wall in center, bringing SU within one.
• Eliza Hunt came on to run for Bower and went to third on a sacrifice bunt by Kara Watkins. Sarah Medellin came in as a pinch runner and saw one pitch and drove a ball that was caught just inches away from the wall in left field, but successfully drove in Hunt to tie the game, 4-4.
• Two walks in the seventh inning put two on the bases for R-MC. The two runners advanced on a passed ball and the lead runner then scored on a wild pitch. The Yellow Jackets then took a 6-4 lead on a single back to the pitcher.
• In the bottom of the seventh, R-MC ended the game with a ground out and two punch outs.

GAME TWO RECAP

• Allison McQueeney led off the game on an error by the R-MC first baseman. Brenna Westwood got down a bunt to advance McQueeney and then McQueeney stole third. "Speedy McQueeney" then scored on a wild pitch. SU led 1-0 at the end of one.
• In the fourth, R-MC tied the game on a single and an RBI double down the right field line with two outs. Another two-out double in the fifth inning put R-MC up, 2-1.
• In the sixth, Shenandoah had a chance to tie the game with Westwood standing on third and just one out. Sarah Medellin drew a walk to put runners on the corners but a pop-up to foul territory and a ground out to second ended the Hornets' hopes.
• In the seventh, Randolph-Macon took a 3-1 lead with four consecutive singles to start the inning. R-MC had the bases loaded with no outs and Danille McNeill ended the threat for a moment by throwing out the lead runner at the plate. However, R-MC added two more runs with a single and a walk. Another bases-loaded single made it a 6-1 lead for the Yellow Jackets.
• Meghan Gaskins hit a lead-off double through the right side to begin the bottom of the seventh but the Yellow Jackets got the next three batters out to conclude the doubleheader.
