FORT MYERS, Fla. (Mar. 5th, 2020) - In their first game of the season, the North Central College softball team defeated Albion College 2-1 in extra innings behind a two-hit performance on the mound from Breanna Adams and a three-hit game from Emily Miller. The Cardinals would later fall to Kenyon University 17-8 in the back end of the doubleheader.

Following three scoreless innings from both sides, Jaime Smith doubled to begin the fourth inning. Miller moved over Smith to third as she singled for the Cardinals second hit of the contest. Adams stepped up to the plate and delivered an rbi single as the Cardinals would take a 1-0 lead.

Adams would throw five hitless innings, but the Britons responded in the sixth with a run of their own to tie the game 1-1. After a scoreless seventh inning, the game would head to extra innings.

Due to the extra inning rules at the Gene Cusic Classic, each team would adopt the "international tiebreaker rule" as they get to place the runner who made the last out, on second base. Smith would move Sherlund over to third base on a bunt single bringing Miller to the dish. She would hit an rbi single giving North Central a 2-1 lead over Albion.

The Britons threatened in the bottom half of the eighth as Shanyn Jewell would advance to third base on a Savannah Spring groundout. Olivia Palasek hit into a fielder's choice as Elena Stevenson threw home as Smith applied the tag to beat the runner and record the second out of the inning. Smith would also make the final out of the contest by picking-off the runner at first base.

Adams moves to 1-0 on the mound as Ashley Pion of Albion falls to 0-1. Miller recorded three hits in the game while Smith and Stevenson tallied two hits a piece.

In game two, the Cardinals found themselves down 6-0 to Kenyon in the second inning, but bounced back as they posted eight runs of their own in the bottom half of the inning. After reaching on a fielder's choice, Stevenson came around to score on a Adams double to give North Central their first runs of the game. Following four singles and a Kenyon error, Stevenson found herself at the plate with a tie game, and delivered a two rbi double to give North Central their first lead of the game, 8-6.

Kenyon then took over the game by holding the Cardinals scoreless the rest of the way and adding 11 more runs to end the game early in the sixth inning, winning 17-8. Miller recorded three hits in the game from the leadoff spot, including driving in two runs. Molly Cann and Samantha Gadomski had two hits a piece with a run as well. Gadomski suffered her first loss of the season as she gave up 14 hits and 10 earned runs over 4.2 innings. Emily Pater of Kenyon picked up her fourth win on the young season, improving to 4-0.

The Cardinals are back at it tomorrow as they face Grove City College at 9:00 am (ET) and Drew University at 11:00 am (ET). The games will be played in Naples, Fla. at North Collier Regional Park #2.
