A&M improves
to 39-15 on year
on 1-0, 7-0 wins
By VINCE SNYDER
Of The Battalion Staff
The Texas A&M’s women’s
softball team displayed strong pitch
ing along with sound hitting as it
swept Stephen F. Austin in a
Wednesday night doubleheader at
the Lady Aggie Softball Field.
The Lady Aggies scored only one
run during the first game, winning it
1-0. In the second game the bats
came alive as A&M scored all seven
of their runs in the sixth inning,
ending the game due to the seven
run limit.
With the wins, the Lady Aggies
move to 39-15 for the year, and 12-3
in region play. The Ladyjacks fall to
21-19.
“We were kind of in a slump late
ly,” A&M Coach Bob Brock said.
“But our two pitchers pitched good
tonight in getting the two shutouts.”
Loosing 1-0 in both games of a
doubleheader against the University
of Texas-Arlington on Tuesday, the
Lady Aggies knew what they had to
do in order to get back on the right
track.
They did it with consistent pitch
ing from Missi Young in the first
game against SFA, and from Dana
Mitchell in the second.
In the first game the score re
mained 0-0 until the bottom of the
fourth inning when Stephanie
Schulte walked to lead off for the
Aggies.
She then reached second base on
a sacrifice bunt by Angie Hughes.
With a bad pitch by SFA pitcher
Sandy Green, Schulte scampered to
third with only one out for A&M.
Lady Aggies’ second baseman Ka
ren Kalhoefer drew a walk and kept
going to second when SFA wasn’t
looking.
With A&M runners at second and
third, Stacey Segal bounced to the
shortstop bringing home Schulte
who was gunned down at the plate.
Segal continued to second base re
peating Kalhoefer’s move, but the
Ladyjacks were ready and threw to
second.
The ball was thrown over the
shortstop’s head and rolled into cen
ter field. The overthrown ball al
lowed Kalhoefer to score from third
and the Lady Aggies went up 1-0.
Young continued her on-target
pitching as she chipped away the
plate for strikes and held the Lady-
jacks scoreless in the top of the sev
enth.
The second game got off to the
same start, as both teams went
scoreless going into the bottom of
the sixth inning.
A&M’s centerfielder Stacey
Crainer led off with a blast to left
field, and then moved to second on a
wild pitch.
Crainer then advanced to third as
Michelle Mayfield slapped the ball in
front of home plate and then beat
out the throw to first.
Once again A&M snagged an
other base as Mayfield kept running
to second while SFA was caught off
gaurd.
Segal, A&M’s next batter, was able
to reach on an infielder’s choice,
loading the bases.
Lady Aggie Renee Blaha dropped
a single into center field, bringing in
two runs to make the score 2-0.
“I got the hit at the right time,”
Blaha said. “Their pitcher was pretty
slow, and I had to time her pitch just
right.”
A&M continued to knock in runs,
making the score 7-0, and was able
to walk away with another victory
over SFA.
“In the second game we seemed to
put things together,” Brock said.
“Maybe this is a sign of things to
come.”
The Lady Aggies will be back in
action tonight in another double-
header at Lady Aggie Softball Field.
They will take on the Lady Bobcats
of Soutwest Texas State. First pitch
is set for 5 p.m.
