#2 Lee Sweeps #12 Brenau
April 7, 2010
Gainesville, Ga- The two top teams in the SSAC hooked up in a doubleheader yesterday at the Lanier Point Softball Complex and NAIA #2 Lee University (19-1, 38-3) came out on top, besting NAIA #12 Brenau (14-5-1, 23-8-1) by scores of 5-3 and 9-0. The Tigers had made a huge jump in the poll earlier in the day, going from #25 to #12 on the strength of their sweep of #18 Shorter last week.
Most of the scoring in the first game came in the second inning as Tiffany Schandera drove in two runs with her only hit of the day. Sarah Applegarth stroked a solo home run in the bottom of the seventh to go with another hit and Lana Lazar had a couple of hits. Brooke Bryant and Austin Smith each collected one hit. Anna Maness struck out three and took the loss.
In the second game, the Tigers picked up four hits, with Lazar, Morgan Smith, Ellen Black and Jana Bryant each reaching base. Maness again struck out three, going the distance on the mound. Brenau will travel to Southern Wesleyan today to try and get back on the winning track and maintain their second place standing in the conference.
