WESTMINSTER, Md. – Brittany Jarboe (Baltimore,
Md./Seton Keough) notched three hits and three runs scored
to lead McDaniel to a doubleheader sweep of Franklin & Marshall
in Centennial Conference (CC) softball action on Tuesday.
The Green Terror (11-6, 2-0 CC) took the opener 3-2 before needing
nine innings in game two to complete the sweep, 8-7.
Jessica Feldman and Lauren
Incorvaia rapped out four hits apiece to pace the
Diplomats (12-10, 2-4 CC), who built a 7-5 lead in the top of the
ninth inning of the nightcap before surrending the lead in the
bottom of the frame.
Jarboe led off the inning with a single before Jordan Beans
(Hanover, Pa./Hanover) sacrificed her to
second.
After a Samantha Staub (Mt. Airy, Md./Linganore)
single up the middle plated Jarboe, Lauren Toomey
(Pottsville, Pa./Pottsville Area) drew a walk to pt
runners at first and second.
An Erinne Warrenfeltz (Smithsburg, Md./Middletown)
loaded the bases before an error allowed both Devon Fogarty
(Clarks Summitt, Pa./Holy Cross) – a pinch runner
for Staub – and Toomey to score with the winning
runs.
In a game filled with nine combined errors and 13 unearned runs,
Franklin & Marshall took advantage of a first-inning miscue
with an Incorvaia double and Kristina Fietkiewicz
RBI groundout to build an early 2-0 lead.
A pair of third-inning Diplomat errors led to five unearned runs,
giving McDaniel a 5-2 lead.
A Feldman double and Fietkiewicz run-scoring single pulled the
visitors within 5-3 in the top of the fifth.
An error and Kelly Marchisio double keyed a top of
the seventh that knotted the game and forced extra innings.
Back-to-back errors and a Samantha Basuk two-run
single gave Franklin & Marshall a two-run lead in the top of
the ninth.
In the first game, the Green Terror grabbed a 3-0 lead after two
innings with three unearned tallies.
A Marchisio single and Caitlin Elfring double in
the third pulled the Diplomats within 3-1.
Mancino and Incorvaia combined a single run in the top of the
seventh but could not push the tying run across.
McDaniel
returns to action at Haverford on Saturday. The first game of the
doubleheader begins at 1 p.m.
