GAME THREE
Overview:
Clarksville, Ark.-Concordia University Texas got a two-out hit to tie the game and send the contest into extra innings and then recorded the game-winning hit in the eighth as the Tornados pulled out a 4-3 win against the Eagles Saturday. The Eagles scored twice in the fourth to break a scoreless game. It was Blaise English once again homering to put the Eagles in front. The Tornados answered in the top of the fifth with two runs. The Eagles moved ahead 3-2 in the sixth on an infield error by Concordia. In the seventh with two outs, Erica Riley sent a single to centerfield to push across the tying run. In the bottom of the seventh, the lead-off batter walked and then was advanced to second base on a sacrifice. However, the Tornados were able to record back-to-back outs to strand the runner in scoring position. An RBI double in the eighth proved to be the game-winner as the Eagles again stranded a runner in scoring position. Mack Lucio went 2-for-4 at the plate. Sarah Todd was the starter and went five innings allowing just one earned run.
