Saints Softball Swept by Eastern Oregon

CALDWELL, Idaho – Saints softball falls to 10-10 on the season after dropping two close games against conference opponent Eastern Oregon 7-5, and 2-0 in Idaho after weather conditions forced the game to be played at a neutral site.
 
Carroll scored in the top of the first after Tianna Harper singled to center field, scoring Allison Bayer. 
 
The Mountaineers answered back in the bottom half of the inning two singles that scored two runs to give EOU a 2-1 lead.
 
The Saints reclaimed the lead in the second inning when Justine Taylor hit a sacrifice fly to left field that scored Destry McNellis.  On the throw home, the ball went past the catcher and Courtney Cloud scored to give Carroll a 3-2 lead.
 
Eastern Oregon tied the game after a home run to right field in the third inning.  The Mountaineers took the lead in the fourth off of a solo home run to center field.  
 
Another run scored in the fifth inning for Eastern Oregon off of a RBI single, giving them a 5-3 led after five innings.
 
Carroll tied the game in the seventh inning when Taylor singled to right field, scoring Cloud.  Madison Soper's sacrifice fly to center field scored Taylor to tie the game at 5-5.
 
With a runner on in the bottom of the seventh, two outs, and a full count, Eastern Oregon hit a walk-off home run to left field to win 7-5.
 
Tess Eaton started the game for the Saints going three innings, allowing three runs on four hits.  Megan Gipe picked up the loss (3-5) after throwing three and two-thirds innings, allowing four runs on four hits.
 
The Saints lost a pitching duel in the second game with MacKenna Landis throwing a complete game allowing five hits and two runs.
 
Eastern Oregon's runs came in the second inning after a RBI single to left field and a solo home run to right field in the fifth inning. 
 
Carroll was held hitless through the first four innings until Harper singled up the middle.
 
"MacKenna threw well again for us" said head coach Aaron Jackson.  "We just struggled to get the hits when we needed them."
 
The Saints were originally scheduled to play on March 15 at Great Falls but the games have been moved back to March 22 due to projected weather conditions.  Next games for the Saints will be their home opener against Southern Oregon on March 19 with first pitching starting at 2 p.m.
