Softball Drops Series Finale To George Washington
April 14, 2019 | Softball
Kaycee Carbone and Hannah Bunker both finished with two hits for the Minutewomen.
Hannah Bunker added a pair of hits from the leadoff spot to go along with two walks, reaching base safely to lead off the first, third and fifth innings. Bunker's first hit of the afternoon opened up a one-run third inning for the Minutewomen as her leadoff base knock set up a Carbone RBI double that brought home Kaitlyn Stavinoha to cut the GW lead to 4-1.
The Colonials opened up the game by plating three runs in the first, all of those with two outs before adding another in the top of the second to go up 4-0. George Washington responded with two runs in the fourth after the Minutewomen broke through for their first run of the day to take a 6-2 advantage before bringing in six runs on seven hits in their final trip to the plate in the seventh.
Bunker's second hit of the game drove in the second UMass run as the sophomore singled through the left side to score a pinch-running Riley Gregoire from second.
Stavinoha started the seventh off with a single to right field before Carbone's second RBI hit of the day drove in the third UMass run on the double with no outs. Danielle Ellis added the fourth and final run with a sacrifice fly to right field to bring in Carbone from third.
The Minutewomen remain at home for a Wednesday afternoon matchup against Boston College at 4 p.m. prior to hitting the road for a three-game series at Dayton beginning on Friday with a single game at 3 p.m.
