Bearcats Fall in Extras to Pacers in Series Opener

AIKEN, S.C. - The Lander Softball team opened up a 4-0 lead in the top of the fourth inning but the USC Aiken Pacers responded to tie the game in the next two innings and eventually take the game with a walk-off home run in the eighth inning to take a 5-4 win on Friday evening at J.H. Satcher Field.

With the loss, Lander dropped to 25-8 overall and 9-4 in PBC play while the Pacers improved to 21-12 overall and 6-7 in the league.

The Bearcats managed only one hit across the first three innings but that changed in the fourth inning as Linda Moore led off the inning with a single and Raquel Camuglia reached on an error to bring up Logan Coward who launched a three-run shot to left center to break the ice and give Lander a 3-0 lead. The Bearcats weren't done as Emily Allen made it back-to-back with a solo shot to center field to make it 4-0.

However, the Pacers responded in the bottom half of the inning by sending eight to the plate and plating three on a pair of RBI singles and an RBI groundout before tying the game in the bottom of the fifth with a solo homer.

After that flurry of runs in the middle of the game, both offenses managed two hits combined for the last two innings to send the game to extras tied at four where the Pacers walked it off with a lead-off home run to take the win.

The two teams complete the series tomorrow with a doubleheader starting at noon.
