Eagles Swept at Purple & Gold Challenge

Softball team back in action on Sunday in Baton Rouge
BATON ROUGE, La. - The Georgia Southern softball team dropped a pair of games Saturday at the Purple & Gold Challenge, falling 6-1 to Central Arkansas before suffering a 10-1 setback in five innings to No. 7 LSU.
UCA 6, GS 1
Morgan Robinson got the Eagles on the board in the bottom of the first inning, driving in India Davis with a single through the left side. That would be all the Eagles would get as the bats were silenced by UCA's Kayla Gomness.
In the sixth inning, Dixie Raley ran into trouble, allowing five runs on four hits, but was victimized by two GS errors, to allow the Bears (2-5) to take their first lead of the game. Heather Felt ran into trouble of her own, allowing a run on a bases-loaded wild pitch, a sacrifice fly and a single as the Bears erupted for six runs in the frame.
Robinson, Hannah Ferrell and freshman Abby Broome had the only hits for Georgia Southern while Haley Carter stole a base.
In the circle, Raley (L, 2-3) went 5.1 innings, allowing five runs (one earned) on seven hits with three walks and six strikeouts. Felt got just one out before being relieved by Kierra Camp. Felt gave up an unearned run on a hit with two walks.
#7 LSU 10, GS 1 (5 Inn.)
LSU scored a pair of runs in the first inning and then put up four-spots in both the second and third innings to break the game open.
GS finally got the bats rolling in the fifth inning when Lydia Witkowski ripped a two-out double to the gap to plate Shelby Wilson.
Freshman Mekhia Freeman had two for the Eagles, a double in the third inning and a single in the seventh inning. Witkowski had a double and Macy Weeks drew a walk.
Camp (L, 0-2) got the start for the Eagles. Also seeing time in the circle were Kaylee Ramos, Heather Felt and Amanda Chambers.
Up Next
The Eagles (2-5) will wrap up play in Louisiana with a pair of games on Sunday, taking on UCA at 10:30 a.m. Eastern (9:30 CT) and LSU at 1 p.m. Eastern (noon CT).
