GAME ONE
Overview:
Clarksville, Ark.-The Eagles scored all six runs in the first three innings of play to pick up a 6-2 win over Lyon College Sunday afternoon in game one. Lyon would hold a lead for just a short time in the game scoring once in the top of the first. The Eagles' offense responded with a run to even the contest on Allyson Fultz's sacrifice fly. After keeping Lyon scoreless in the top of the second, the Eagles plated two runs in the bottom half of the inning. Gracie Jones delivered a two-run single to put the Eagles in front 3-1. In the third inning, the Eagles got an outstanding defensive play to keep the lead. After Lyon scored one run, the Scots looked to threaten once more with runners on first and third with just one out. However, Sarah Todd got Whitney Mitchell to line out into a double play to end the threat. The momentum carried into the bottom half of the inning as the Eagles loaded the bases. Kaylyn Soria crossed the plate on a wild pitch and Mack Lucio singled in Rayli Ruby and Olivia Reed to make it 6-2. From there, relief pitcher Morgan Haupt kept the Scots off the board the rest of the game. The Eagles totaled nine hits, with Lucio, Jones and Ruby each collecting two hits apiece. Sarah Todd received the win in the circle and Haupt received the save.
