Softball Falls to Concordia

AUSTIN, Texas-- The LeTourneau softball team fell on the road in the series finale with Concordia, 9-4, on Saturday afternoon. 

Concordia (8-5, 1-2 ASC) took a lead early in the first after LeTourneau (5-6, 2-1 ASC) left two runners stranded in the top half. 

The Tornados scored one run on two hits after a stolen base to make it 1-0. 

The YellowJackets answered in the second inning as Lexi Hutchins got on base with a single to left. This allowed Leighton Landreth to crush one over the fence in center field for a two-run homer, her first of the season to put LeTourne ahead 2-1.

Concordia was able to take advantage of a pair of errors in the bottom of the second as they scored three unearned runs to take a 4-2 lead.

Kylie Grisham kicked off the third inning with a leadoff single. Laney Taylor then brought her all the way around with her RBI double out to center field to bring the deficit back to one (4-3).

Taylor stole third base after the Tornado pitching change. Payton Bauer then put a ball in play for an RBI as Taylor made it home to tie the game at 4-4.

A pair of empty frames before the bottom of the fifth where Concordia scored three runs on five hits to take a 7-4 lead. The Tornados scored two more in the sixth on two hits and an error to bring us to the final score of 9-4.

Maddie Flanery went 3-for-4 at the plate with a pair of stolen bases. Hutchins went 2-of-3.
