UNC Greensboro Defeats NCCU Softball, 8-0

In spite of  North Carolina Central leaving UNC Greensboro without a run in three innings of play, the Lady Spartans five runs in the bottom of the sixth inning secured a 8-0 win.

Maroon and gray senior Andrea Searls led the team with the only hit of the contest, as junior Bianka Molina tallied the lost and three runners were left stranded on base.

UNCG seized their sixth win of the season on eight runs, seven hits and seven RBI, while Cory Mattson, who obtained the win by striking out eight batters in maroon and gray, pitched a complete game.

Maroon and gray pitcher Kayla McPeek took control of the mound during the bottom of the fifth.  With 1.1 innings of pitching, McPeek permitted four hits, five runs and also walked a duo.

UNCG snapped their previous bottom of the fifth endless runs with a pair of runs on two times at bat. 

With four consecutive Lady Spartans runs for score of 7-0 in the bottom of the seven, NCCU head softball coach Theresa Stephens relieved McPeek and sent senior Aurora Baker to the circle for less than one inning of play.
