The Foresters (11-14, 4-6) dropped two close games 1-0 and 3-1 to
Spring Arbor University. They played well enough to win, but
just couldn't come up with the big hit when they needed it.
The opener was scoreless through six
innings when Spring Arbor's Danielle Beckett sent one over the fence
with one out in the top of the seventh. HU couldn't answer in
their final at-bat and stranded six base runners throughout the game.
Ashley Scally took the disappointing
loss for the Foresters. She gave up one run on eight hits and
one walk while striking out four in seven innings. Brittney
Bateman was the only Forester with two hits in the game.
In game two, the Cougars plated one in
the third and added two more in the fifth to take a 3-0 lead. HU
scored its first run of the day in the bottom of the seventh, but it
wasn't enough. Again, the Foresters couldn't get the timely hit
as they left seven on base in the game. Kendra Stahl had two
hits in the game including a triple and she drove in HU's only run of
the day.
Lauren Ward allowed three runs on 10
hits and she struck out seven in the loss.
