Cardinals drop two close games in doubleheader vs. SFA

SAN ANTONIO -- The University of the Incarnate Word softball team came up just short in both games of Friday's doubleheader against the Stephen F. Austin Ladyjacks. The Cardinals dropped the first game 4-1 and the second game 3-0.

  • Brett Coleman got the start in the series opener and pitched 6.0 innings, allowing four runs on seven hits and striking out two batters.
  • Renee Hoffman had one of her better days in the circle, pitching a complete game and surrendering just three runs on seven hits with a strikeout. Hoffman also picked up a base hit at the plate. 
HOW IT HAPPENED
Game 1
SFA scored a run in the second to take its first lead of the game, adding three more in the fifth to make it 4-0.

Game 2
Once again, SFA got going in the second inning with a run, adding another in the fifth and one more in the sixth to pick up the 3-0 victory.
