WHAT HAPPENED

  • The Wolves got one back in the top of the fifth as Zekylah Boyd led off with a single followed by a bunt single from Jadyn Tummin that led to Boyd being thrown out at third and Tummin moved to second
  • The next batter was Megan Waites as she singled to the left side, scoring Tummin but that all as Addison worked out of the jam to maintain the lead

  • Winthrop threatened to tie or take the lead in the bottom of the first as Bryden doubled with one out
  • Darrah Nickens followed with a walk but Beckham lined out and Buckner flied out down the line in right to end the threat
  • Seton Hall increased its lead in the second as Hobbes reached on a fielder's choice as the Eagle defense got the force out at second but back-to-back singles plated the second run as Hobbes crossed the plate to lead 2-0
  • Brennan then drew a walk to load the bases with one out, but Maddie Wiant got a ground out that led to Bryden getting the force out with the throw home
  • The next batter was DeMarco and she fouled off three straight pitches before connecting on one for a grand slam to center field for a 6-0 lead
  • Eagles tried to answer right away in the bottom of the second as Bunch singled to right to lead off and moved to second on bunt single by Tabitha Perry
  • Winthrop couldn't take advantage as Pearson sacrificed the runners into scoring position but Emma Roberson struck out and then Rebecca Amos lined out to left center
