GREAT Softball Saturday for EKU

Post by EKULFan »

The KERNS top Stetson in both games of Saturday's ASUN doubleheader! :D :D :D :D 4-3 in game #1 and 11-0 (run rule) in game #2.

Game 1 was a close back and forth affair with both teams shinning some leather but EKU wins in an extra inning thriller 4-3! 8-)

S. Miller singles home J. Miller in the bottom of the 8th for the win!

Katlin Young came in to relieve S.Reynaso and pitched a stellar 4 innings, giving up only 1 run to pick up her 1st win of the season! 8-) Even better Young has gotten progressively better in the circle and has proven to be a solid contributor for EKU!

Game #2 was owned by C. Robinson who had a 2 home run game! Her second was a GRAND SLAM to put the Colonels up 8-0...7 of those runs came via Robinson's homers!

L. Narvaez pitched a really nice second game giving up only 2 singles on her way to a complete game shut out over Stetson! It was Narvaez 3rd win of the season and the freshman's 2nd shutout!

Narvaez and Young have a bright future for EKU...and both are starting to come on strong as the Colonels are really just getting started with the ASUN portion of their schedule!

1st back-to-back wins of the season...going for the sweep tomorrow!

GO COLONELS!

Kerns can't pull off the "Hat Trick" lose game #3 on Sunday to Stetson 4-3! :cry: :cry: EKU had a couple chances to pull this one out but stranded 9 runners on the day...2 of which were in the bottom of the 7th inning! :?

The Good: Pitchers Young and Narvaez started and completed the game! This is impressive since Stetson ain't no cellar dweller! Both had a good day in the circle and each time out they're getter better...which is all you can ask of an athlete!
Only 1 error on the day and it was on our catcher for batter interference!
Carly Robinson keep her hot bat alive hitting her 3rd homer in two days!

The Bad: Stranding too many runners(9), several in scoring position and getting rung up 9 times on the day! :oops:

The Ugly: A .200 hitter for Stetson got hot at the wrong time for EKU! She smacked 2 over the fence today...her 2nd dinger was in the Top of the 7 and gave Stetson a 2 run lead!

We got a tough road trip coming up...3 games at Jacksonville State! Always tough to win at their place!
