GAME 1 BOX | GAME 2 BOX
ST. PAUL, Minn. --
Amanda Schwartz (FY, Becker, Minn.),
Tiffany Magnuson (SR, Green Bay, Wis./Notre Dame Academy HS) and
Jennifer Castillo (SO, Minneapolis, Minn./Washburn HS) had two hits apiece in the doubleheader, as the Augsburg College softball team dropped a Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletic Conference twinbill at Hamline University on Tuesday afternoon at Hamline's Helen Meredith Field.
Hamline (11-5 overall, 4-2 MIAC) won the opener 8-0 in five innings, then topped Augsburg (2-22 overall, 0-6 MIAC) 9-4 in the nightcap.
Magnuson had a double and Schwartz had a single in the first game, the lone hits off of Hamline pitcher Jessalyn Weaver, who struck out four while allowing no walks in a complete-game effort.
In the second game, Augsburg cut a 4-0 deficit to 4-3 with a three-run third inning, paced by RBI singles by
Jessa Hinz (SO, Richfield, Minn.),
Brittney Bruzek (SO, Alexandria, Minn./Jefferson HS) and
Sarah Mueller (SR, Green Bay, Wis./Southwest HS). But Hamline scored three runs in the fifth inning and two runs in the sixth to seal the win. Augsburg's other run came in the sixth inning, as Castillo singled to drive in a run.
Augsburg hosts Concordia-Moorhead in a rescheduled doubleheader on Wednesday (4/8) at 4 p.m. at Edor Nelson Field.
