Softball drops both games in second day of Mardi Gras Mambo

YOUNGSVILLE, La. – The second day of the Mardi Gras Mambo wasn't as kind to the University of the Incarnate Word softball team as it dropped both games on Saturday. In the first game, the Cardinals lost 3-2 to Jacksonville State and were unable to complete the comeback effort. The second game ended in five innings as UIW fell to Louisiana-Monroe by a score of 8-0.

NOTABLES
  • Freshman Maddie Boldt recorded her first collegiate hit and RBI with a triple against Jacksonville State in the first game. She also walked twice in the game.
  • Sophomore Sam Wendel had her first career multi-hit game as she singled twice against the Gamecocks.
  • Another stellar game for Renee Hoffman as she collected two hits and a walk in the batter's box. She also pitched two shutout innings of relief to lower her ERA on the season to 1.56.

HOW IT HAPPENED
Game 1 vs. Jacksonville State
The Gamecocks struck first in the bottom of the second on a couple miscues made by the Cardinals' defense. After a 3-0 deficit going into the fourth inning, UIW made another late push.
 
Sophomore Sam Wendel put the Cardinals on the board with an RBI single to right center. It was the first of her two hits in the game.
 
With a two-run deficit, UIW was looking for some momentum to swing their way that came in the form of Maddie Boldt. In the top of the fifth, the freshman recorded her first collegiate hit and RBI with a triple to left center to score Renee Hoffman.
 
Although the Cardinals made a little noise in the top of the seventh with runners on first and second, they weren't able to finish the comeback and fell 3-2 to the Gamecocks.

Game 2 vs. ULM
The Cardinals were unable to get the offense going in the second game of the day against the Warhawks as they fell 8-0 in five innings. Hailey Goins had the lone hit for UIW.
 
UP NEXT
The last game of the Mardi Gras Mambo will be against Alcorn State Sunday, February 23 at Noon (CT).
