INSIDE THE BOXSCORE 

Game One

Abby Rutledge picked up her 3rd save of the year after coming in for relief in the top of the 7th with the tying run at 2nd base. After a UMO bunt to move their runner to 3rd and no outs, Rutledge retired three batters in a row to solidify the win for the Hawks. The Hawks tallied four hits in the game. Hope Soria went 1-2 with an RBI while Kaitlyn Springle went 1-3 with a run scored. 

Game Two 

The Hawks fended off a late Trojan attack to pick up a 5-3 game two win. Chowan combined efforts on the mound and at the plate in a balanced attack that also featured a solid defensive performance. Ava Mizell went 2-3 with two runs scored, a double, and an RBI to the lead offensive attack. Mizell stole four bases in the game and threw two runners out at the plate from second base defensively. Kyra Helton drove in a run in a 1-4 plate performance while Kyndal Hopkins came in clutch with an RBI single pinch hit. 

On the mound Emily Fowler picked up the win after throwing 3 innings. She gave up 2 hits and held the Trojans scoreless.
