Softball Splits at Peace

RALEIGH, N.C. - Shenandoah University saw its winning streak end, but got a split of its USA South Conference softball series with Peace College Saturday afternoon.

Shenandoah (18-8, 7-3 USA South) was a 3-2 winner in game one, but Peace (13-15, 6-6) rallied for a 2-1 victory in the nightcap.

It took one extra inning for the Hornets in that opener - Jesse Heins plated placed runner Catherine Beuerle with a two-out sacrifice fly to center.

The manufactured run made a winner of senior Katie Haskins (10-2), who struck out eight and allowed the two runs on seven hits while pitching a complete game.

Shenandoah had 10 hits in the contest including two each from Haskins, Beuerle and freshman Marlee Camplese.

Freshman Brooke Over (4-5) took the loss in the nightcap. In the bottom of the seventh, Over missed first baseman Lauren Wall on a groundball back to the circle, and this runner came around to score the winning run.
