Gainesville, FL – The Saints nearly pulled off a comeback win in game one of a double header against the defending FCSAA Champion Tallahassee CC Eagles, but came up just short in extra innings, 2-1. The second game was all TCC as the Eagles (7-0) handled SF for a 4-0 win.
Maddy Peres pitched game one for the Saints (3-6) and after a first inning run surrendered on a bases loaded walk, she settled in and dominated, setting up Keysha Gordon's game tying double in the bottom of the sixth to make the score 1-1.
In the eighth inning, both teams started with a runner on second per the International Tiebreaker rules. TCC sacrificed the runner to third and with two outs hit a ground ball that was overthrown, allowing the run to score on an error. The Saints were unable to move the runner in the bottom half of the inning.
Game two was all Eagles as they hit and pitched their way to a 4-0 victory.
A week from today the Saints will get another shot at the Eagles when they travel to Tallahassee for a double header on Thursday, February 19 starting at 4:00 PM.
