Gorloks Falls Twice To Millikin

DECATUR, Ill. - The Webster University softball team continued non-conference play with a double-header at Millikin University on Friday. The Gorloks faced a very talented Big Blue squad and dropped both non-conference games.

Game One: Webster 0, Millikin 13

Webster opened the first game of the double-header with a slow start on offensive. In the bottom of the first, Millikin erupted for a 10-run inning that included six hits.

In the top of the third, Abigail Chandler broke up the no-hitter with a lead off single to right as that hit was the only hit of the game for the Gorloks. Moments later, Chandler advanced to second on a wild pitch but was left stranded. 

In the bottom of the third, Millikin tallied a three-run inning with three hits that generated the final score. 


Game Two: Webster 2, Millikin 10

WU's Aven Ragwar-Hayes and Emma Bovaconti were the first two base runners to reach base in the nightcap decision in the top of the first. However, neither run got past first base. In the bottom half, Millikin recorded two hits that led to a two-run inning that took the early lead.

In the top of the second, Ainsley Hinz recorded the first Gorlok hit of the game with a single up the middle. Unfortunately, she got out on a fielder's choice that allowed Adriana Rodriguez to reach base but Rodriguez was left stranded on first that ended the inning.

In the top of the third, Lili Work recorded her first hit of the day with a single through the left side but got out on a fielder's choice. In the bottom frame, Millikin extended the Gorlok deficit to five runs with a three-run inning. 

In the top of the fourth, WU's Madi Stichling got the inning started with a lead off single to right center. Moments later, Cheyenne Dickens laced a single up the middle that advanced Stichling to second. With one out, Rodriguez ripped a rbi single up the middle which scored Stichling that put the Gorloks on the scoreboard. With runners on the corner, Prisha Nigam reached on a fielder's choice that scored Dickens that cut the deficit to 2-6. 

In the bottom of the fourth, Webster made their first pitching change of the day and entered in Stichling as she recorded a scoreless inning that included two groundouts. In the bottom of the fifth, Millikin added a five-run inning with six hits that generated the final score. 

For the game, five different Gorloks recorded one hit each while Stichling and Dickens scored. On the mound, Hinz pitched three innings and recorded the lone strikeout of the game. 

The Gorloks will open conference play on Wednesday, April 2 with a visit to Greenville University starting at 3:00PM in Greenville, Illinois.
