WHAT HAPPENED
  • This game began on Apr. 20 as the second game of a doubleheader to close out the series
  • The game was tied 0-0 with the leadoff batter in the top of the fourth inning when the game was delayed by lightning
  • Eventually a storm popped up and after several minutes of rain and hail the field was unplayable, forcing it to be postponed
  • The Eagles offense didn't take long to get going as they pushed five runs across and batted around in the bottom of the fourth
  • Paige Rivas drew a leadoff walk, Ashton VanHouse singled on a chopper to third base and Emma Jackson walked to load the bases
  • KaDedra Temple was hit on the second pitch to drive in the first run
  • Reese Basinger then flied out to center as VanHouse tagged up and raced home for a 2-0 lead
  • Peyton Rivas drew a bases loaded walk for a 3-0 lead before Grayson Buckner delivered a two-run single to push the lead to 5-0
  • Eagles added two more runs in the fifth as Jackson homered with one out and Basinger homered with two outs
  • Basinger allowed just three hits to earn her second shutout of the season
EXTRA BASES
  • Eagles have now won three straight games and have back-to-back shutouts
  • Basinger earned her 10th win of the season and 35th of her career (12th all-time)
  • Jackson has now reached base safely in 12 straight conference games
  • Buckner extended her hitting streak to 10 straight games against league opponents
