Softball Falls to Hillsdale College and North Georgia in Opening Weekend

Box Score 1 | Box Score 2 (Dahlonega, Ga., Feb. 10) – The McKendree University softball team dropped two contests this past Sunday, February 9, first to Hillsdale College 4-0 and followed by the University of North Georgia 14-1.
 
In the matchup against Hillsdale College, the Chargers first got on the board in the second off an RBI single for one run and solidified their victory over the Bearcats with three additional runs in the sixth. Junior Miranda Gajewski (Kronenwetter, WI/D.C. Everest) allowed just five hits while striking out one batter through six innings. Freshman Emily Mudd (Hillsboro, MO/Hillsboro High School) entered the game after a two-run score off Gajewski in the sixth inning, and eliminated the final two batters.
 
In their game against the University of North Georgia, the Bearcats remained tied with the Nighthawks 1-1 thru three innings after Gajewski hit a center-field double which sent fellow junior Shelby Summer (Washington, IL/Washington High School) home, though McKendree was unable to withstand a late seven-run flurry from UNG in the seventh inning, ultimately falling 14-1.
 
The Bearcats aim to bounce back this upcoming Saturday, Feb. 15 as they travel to Harrogate, Tennessee to compete in the Lincoln Memorial Tournament on the campus of Lincoln Memorial University.
