The Middlebury softball team split a two-game set against Bowdoin on Sunday afternoon. The Panthers took the first game by a 3-2 score, before falling in the later contest 9-1 in five innings.
 
GAME 1 HIGHLIGHTS
  • The Polar Bears jumped out to a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning. Katryna Dukehart doubled to left field, bringing Angelina Mayers home from first base. 
  • Middlebury responded in the fourth inning. With the bases loaded, Tori Papaleo popped a sacrifice fly to center field which allowed Lizzie Hannafey to cross home plate and level the score at 1-1.
  • The Panthers took the lead in the fifth. Cece Ziegler opened the inning by reaching on a Bowdoin miscue. Kristyn Carroll and Abby Santis followed with a walk and a hit-by-pitch to load the bases. McKenna Lont reached on a fielder's choice which drove in Ziegler and Megan Fox recorded an RBI groundout which plated Carroll to give Middlebury a 3-1 edge.
  • In the bottom of the sixth inning, the Polar Bears cut the deficit to one (3-2) on a home run by Mayers. 
  • With the Panthers leading by one in the bottom of the seventh, Jewel Ashbrook closed out the victory, retiring three Bowdoin batters in order to secure the 3-2 win.
GAME 2 HIGHLIGHTS
  • The Polar Bears opened the game with three runs in the first inning. With runners on first and second, Dukehart doubled to left field, driving in Mayers and Lilly Armstrong. Chloe Garcia followed with a single to bring home Dukehart and give Bowdoin a 3-0 edge.
