Softball’s Rally Falls Short

Senior Steph Jacoby hit a two-run homer in the sixth to lead the Raider offense

HAMILTON – Colgate softball's comeback rally fell short as the Raiders dropped a 4-2 contest to Lehigh on Sunday afternoon.
 
Lehigh scored a sacrifice fly in the top of the seventh to push the Mountain Hawks ahead by two runs to win their ninth straight Patriot League game.
 
Senior Steph Jacoby scored the only Raider run of the day after hitting a two-run homer to cut Colgate's deficit to 3-2 going into the seventh.
 
The Mountains Hawks got on the board early, scoring a run off a fielder's choice in the opening inning of the game.
 
Colgate's bats tried to make some noise in the bottom of the second as Taylor Ludwick hit a leadoff single to get on base. Jillian Herbst went on to reach first on an error two at-bats later, but both were eventually left stranded.
 
Lehigh added two runs to the board off of singles in the top of the third to lead 3-0. The game looked to be a Mountain Hawks shutout as their defense held strong, allowing only two singles from Rachel Carney in the third and fifth innings.
 
The Mountain Hawks' shutout was spoiled in the bottom of the sixth after Jacoby nailed a homer to left field to score herself and Ludwick, who reached base off a fielder's choice an at-bat before. Unfortunately for Colgate, the rally was squished as Lehigh added a safety run to the board in the top of the seventh and put the Raiders down in order in the bottom of the inning to secure the 4-2 win.
 
UP NEXT
Colgate (15-22, 5-4 PL) travels to Siena on Tuesday, April 18, for a midweek matchup. The doubleheader against the Saints is scheduled for 2:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m.
