Scots And Bison Each Take One In Twinbill

On the second day of the Bison vs. Fighting Scots square-off, Gordon College Softball went 1-1 on the afternoon, winning the first game by a score of 6-3 before falling to the Bison 5-7 in the nightcap.
 
Game One
  • After keeping the Bison off the board in the first, the Scots' Arianna Ramsaran connected on a liner straight back up the middle to load the bases. A wild pitch scored Mara Little, giving the home side a 1-0 early lead.
  • Nichols made some noise in the top of the fourth but with the bases loaded, Ramsaran drifted up the middle to grab the grounder to get the out at second to stop the threat.
  • Ramsaran hit solo shot in the home half of the fifth to extend Gordon's lead to two.
  • The Bison answered back in the top fo the sixth and then some, tying the game at two before scoring the go ahead run to go up, 3-2.
  • With two outs and two on, Little launched a no doubter over the left field fence to regain the lead, 5-3. Invigorated by Little's hit, Rivera tucked in a triple deep in the right field corner to put herself 60 feet away from another Scot run. The senior did just that as Rivera slid home safely on a passed ball to double up the Bison, 6-3.
  • Gordon took care of business in the top of the seventh to take the 6-3 dub.
Game Two
  • Nichols began the second contest off with a three-hit, three-run first inning and later added another to make it 4-0 in the top of the third.
  • Emily Harms led off the home half of the third with a single up the middle. Gabby Hunt followed that up with a double to left to put Harms at third. Continuing to string together the hits, Little ripped a liner up the middle to score Harms to cut the deficit to three.
  • The Scots showed up big in the bottom of the fifth, all with two outs. Rivera doubled to right and advanced to third on a miscue by the Bison outfielder and Ramsaran got herself on base after a walk. Laura Bieren hit a single up the middle to score Rivera and to make it a one run game. Kristen Brown wanted to give her team some insurance runs as the senior rocketed a two-RBI double to left center take the 5-4 lead.
  • However, the Bison put their rally caps on in the top of the seventh, again scoring three runs on three hits to regain the lead and eventually take the 7-5 win.
Beyond The Box Score
  • Mara Little hit her first collegiate home run in game one.
  • Ari Ramsaran hit her third homer of the season.
