UIW Softball Swept by Nicholls State at Home

SAN ANTONIO, TX – The University of the Incarnate Word softball team suffered 4-3 (8 inn.) and 6-2 losses to visiting Nicholls State University on Friday evening in a Southland Conference doubleheader at Cardinals Field.

HOW IT HAPPENED (GAME ONE)
  • Incarnate Word opened with two runs in the bottom of the first inning thanks to a two-run home run from junior Sydney Zenon, her fifth of the season.
  • Nicholls got on the scoreboard in the fourth inning of play, sending a three-run home run of its own over the fence for a 3-2 lead.
  • Senior Madison Dorrow entered the game as a pinch hitter in the home half of the seventh inning and hit a lead-off home run to left, tying the game at 3-all.
  • The Cardinals looked to rally in the seventh, putting runners on second and third before the Colonels got a force out at home, a fly out to right field, and a swinging strikeout to get out of trouble.
  • In the top of the eighth, Nicholls loaded the bases with one out and scored the go-ahead run on a fielder's choice for a 4-3 advantage.
  • The Cardinals opened the eighth with back-to-back singles, but a strikeout ended the game and left runners stranded on the corners.
HOW IT HAPPENED (GAME TWO)
  • Momentum carried over into the nightcap for Nicholls as the Colonels scored three runs across the game's first two innings for an early 3-0 lead.
  • Incarnate Word cut the deficit to one with a two-run second inning as Zenon brought two runs home with an RBI single down the left field line.
  • The Colonels added another run in the top of the fourth to make the advantage 4-2 for the visiting team.
  • A two-run seventh inning added additional insurance runs to the Nicholls lead as UIW had just one runner reach base over the final three innings.
NOTES
  • Senior Bella Mitchell (4 inn., 3 Ks) and freshman Emma Follis (3.1 inn., 5 Ks) combined for 7.1 innings and eight strikeouts in the circle in game one.
  • Junior Jaisy Caceres was 2-for-4 in game one, while Dorrow and Zenon each tallied a home run in the series opener.
  • Junior Ava Hernandez was efficient across 2.1 innings of relief, allowing just one run on two hits with three strikeouts in game two.
  • Zenon was 2-for-4 in Friday's final game with two RBI, while senior Dominique Guerra and junior Aynsli Lawson scored one run apiece.
