The Maryville College softball team fell to 0-10 on the season with a double-header loss to Agnes Scott College by the scores of 7-1 and 1-0 in Atlanta, Georgia on Saturday afternoon.
The opener saw Agnes Scott pound out 11 hits while the Scots had only three hits collectively. MC got on the board first with a Hannah Youngdeer RBI single scoring Taylor Dockery in their first at-bat. Maryville's bats went silent with Tiffany Brand and Kayla Aloisi picking up the only addition hits for MC. Agnes Scott evened the score at 1-1 in the fourth inning, but exploded for back-to-back three run innings to close out the game. MC's Aloisi suffered the loss on the mound after scattering nine hits in 5.1 innings of work.
In the nightcap, Maryville's Lexie Randolph pitched a gem and still suffered the loss. She scattered eight hits in a complete game effort. Agnes Scott's Alyssa Millikin scored the game winning run in the bottom of the seventh when Julia Blattner drove her home with an RBI single to left field. Taylor Dockery, Lexie Randolph, and Jennie Burks collected Maryville's three hits against the Scotties' Holly Jones.
Maryville will now prepare for their home opener against Mary Baldwin on Friday, February 28th. First-pitch for the double header is set for 2:00.
