Softball Drops Doubleheader to No. 6 Tigers

MARSHALL, Texas -- LeTourneau softball fell twice to No. 6 East Texas Baptist in a Saturday doubleheader at Taylor Field.

ETBU was too much in the opening game, defeating LeTourneau (11-17) 8-0 in just five innings. 

The Tigers scored a pair of runs in both the first and second innings, before adding three runs in the fourth.

Maddie Flanery singled and stole a base, Jenna Carter doubled, and Raina Doggett and Kylie Davis each produced a hit.

Laynie Davis (3-3) received the loss in her four-inning start, while Avery Holland (11-1) pitched a complete-game shutout for ETBU, earning the win.

Game two told an entirely different story, as LeTourneau held control for the majority of the contest.

After back-to-back walks in the first by Flanery and Rylie Shipp, Jenna Carter laid down a bunt single to load the bases for Doggett.

Doggett then worked a bases-loaded walk to plate Flanery and give LeTourneau a 1-0 lead in the first.

That would be the only run to come home until the seventh inning. 

Brooke Bubert pitched a gem of a no-decision, throwing four scoreless innings in the circle, working out of jams in all of them. 

Bubert was relieved by Bree Brege (3-5) who shut the doors in the fifth and sixth, until Piper Morton launched a solo homer to center field to tie the game with one out in the bottom of the seventh.

The extra-inning automatic runner came home in the eighth on an Aleyna St. Jean single to left field, as the Tigers won in walk-off fashion.

Laynie Davis and Mandy Hoback garnered the other two hits for LeTourneau

Alexis Kemp (6-2) allowed just the one run in eight innings for ETBU, earning the winning decision. 

Ryan Stratman went 5-for-7 with three runs scored on the day for the Tigers, while Izabella Morales added four hits.
