Akron, Ohio – The Lindenwood-Belleville softball team beat the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds on the second day of the USCAA National Tournament to put themselves in the National
Championship game.
In game one the Lady Lynx took on No. 2 Carlow University. The Lady Lynx got on the board first in the second inning. Nicole Miskowicz drew a one out walk and on the very next
pitch would steal second base. After a ground out by Makayla Powers, Miskowicz would move up to third. Sierra Redmon would come through with a big two out single to scoring
Miskowicz.
In the third the Lady Lynx would add another three runs. Marquis Lozoya would get it started with a one out triple to left centerfield. After a walk by Meghan Rumley, Samantha
Pacecho would reach on a fielder's choice that scored Lozoya. Stephanie Holiday would come up next and hit a sacrifice fly to center scoring the pinch runner Tiffani Shadowens.
Pacecho would come around to score off a two out double by Miskowicz.
The score would remain 4-0 until the fifth. Lozoya would lead off the inning with a single, followed by a walk by Rumley. After a sacrifice bunt Pacecho, Holiday would hit a single
into left scoring Lozoya. With two outs the Lady Lynx would get four straight hits and score five more runs. Sierra Redmon would start it with a single up the middle, followed by a
single by Brittney Snow. Mackenzie Foiles would hit a single into left and Lozoya would pick up her second hit of the inning.
With the six runs the Lady Lynx would take 10-0 lead and go on to win by the same score.
Stephanie Holiday (15-11) picked up the win in the circle shutting out the Lady Golden Bears and only allowing two hits.
In game two the Lady Lynx took on the No. 1 seed Briarcliffe College. Mackenzie Foiles would lead off the game with a single. Lozoya would sacrifice Foiles to second and an RBI
