Freshmen Clinch Seventh Inning Comeback Victory

Image

ST. GEORGE -- Down 2-1 with bases loaded at the bottom of the seventh inning, Coreen Lopez hit a walk-off single to help the BYU women’s softball team stage a come-from-behind win to claim a 3-2 victory over San Jose State Saturday evening. Including her game-winning RBI, Lopez led the team hitting 2-for-3. With the win the Cougars improve to 4-2 on the season.

Sophomore Paige Affleck led the Cougars from the circle throwing 7 innings allowing 2 runs, 1 earned, off of 3 hits, improving to 2-1 on the season.

“As the weather fell in during the second game it was frustrating, but it was nice to see our team come back and win, especially with the effort of the freshmen,” said BYU head coach Gordon Eakin.

After trailing SJSU through six inning, freshman Krista Hicks’ single-base hit RBI tied the score 2-2 in the bottom of the seventh. A SJSU pitching change preceded Lopez’s game-winning hit.

Earlier in the afternoon the Cougars lost a hard-fought pitchers duel, falling to No.12 Tennessee in 10 innings, 4-0.

Junior Christie Zinanti led the team from the circle throwing 9 innings giving up 4 runs, 3 earned, off of nine hits. The hurler received the loss for the game after batting through nine-plus innings. Zinanti worked her way out of jam after jam, inning after inning, forcing Tennesse to leave 11 runners on base.

Sophomore Jessica Purcell led BYU from the plate going 2-for-4 with a double and a single. She accounted for two of BYU's three hits in the game.

“We played against Tennessee well with a lot of opportunity, but we couldn’t bring a run across,” said Eakin.

After seven scoreless innings Lopez hit a double to right-center threatening to score. Tennessee intentionally walked Stephanie Hopkins put two runners on for the Cougars, but a strikeout ended the inning.

During the top of the ninth, Tennessee mounted a big threat with a no-out single. Two sacrifice bunts advanced the baserunner to third and a diving play to catch a line drive in foul territory from Lopez ended the scoring threat.

With two outs sophomore Jessica Purcell hit a ground-rule double down the left field line. Following suit with the previous inning, sophomore Caschjen Davis was intentionally walked, before junior Amanda Vance hit a routine groundball to the shortstop to end the inning.

Leading off the top of the ninth inning, a bunt single followed by a throwing error put an orange and white runner on second base. After a walked batter and a single, the bases were loaded for Tennessee. Lopez fielded a groundball at third, and returned a hard throw at home to get the force out that was beat by the base runner.

With the bases still loaded, a single off the right field wall made way for two runs to score and a third scored on the throw from right field. After eight-plus inning, Affleck came in to relieve Zinanti, who had battled Tennessee for 162 pitches. Affleck struck out three straight batters to make way for BYU’s last at-bat with a 4-0 deficit.

The Cougars have a week to prepare for the Louisville Slugger Desert Classic in Las Vegas on Feb. 12-14.
