Bison rally to tie Wilson College

WASHINGTON, D.C.--Wilson College took the first of two games, 8-3. Gallaudet staged a seven-run rally over two innings to tie the game at 12-12 and force extra innings. The game was called on account of darkness, forcing a draw.

The Buff and Blue posted double figure hits, with six batters combining for 10 hits in the first game. Caitlin Mosholder went 2-for-4 and scored twice, with Keri Schmidt adding the other run.

Wilson took advantage of a  five-run fourth inning that turned to be the difference within the game. The visitors had already scored three runs in the first inning.

In the fifth,  Keri Schmidt reached on balls, and then stole second base. Virginia Keeler had a RBI double, bringing Schmidt home. Freshman Casey McCullough added another RBI as she singled, bringing Caitlin Mosholder home before a Colleen Caverly fly-out ended the inning.  Caverly had a RBI double in the seventh, bringing Mosholder home to cap the Bison scoring output.

Over the second game, Gallaudet posted season-highs, 12 runs and 17 hits. Jenna Owens pitched four innings with Colleen Tighe picking up three as  almost the entire lineup had at least a hit. Tighe had four strikeouts to Owens's three.

Kallie Williams led the offense, going 4-for-4 and scoring 3 runs. Keri Schmidt went 3-for-4, and scored 4 times.

As a team, the Bison produced 11 RBI with Casey McCullough's five leading the way. Caitlin Mosholder and Keri Schmidt each added three.

Wilson had a seven-run lead entering the bottom of the sixth. The visitors saw their lead evaporate as the Buff and Blue poured in seven runs off 10 hits by the time the seventh inning ended in a 12-12 tie. Neither team could produce any more runs in the extra inning before the game was called.

Gallaudet (0-3-1, 0-0 CAC) has a short break before taking on the College of Notre Dame at home on Wednesday, March 5. The first pitch is set to go at 3 p.m.
