Softball ends Season with a Split at Bowdoin

Brunswick, ME - The SJC softball squad wrapped up the season with a 4-0 loss in game 1 and a 4-3 win in game 2 at Bowdoin College this week.

In game 1, FY Christy Wesowicz (Granville, MA) turned in a strong performance in her first intercollegiate start, striking out 7 and allowing no walks, but the Monks struggled at the plate and failed to offer much-needed run support.

Bowdoin scored three runs on three hits in the first inning and added an insurance run in the fifth. FY Jillian Kimball (Albany Twp., Me) led St. Joe's with two hits and SO Aly Ludwig (Waldoboro, ME), SR Amanda Roy (Winslow, ME) and FY Kayla Soucy (Colebrook, NH) each chipped in with one hit.

SR Colleen Delahanty (Warren, ME) took the mound and the Monks rebounded in game two, plating a run in both the first and second innings. Bowdoin scored in the bottom of the second to close the gap to 2-1.

In the fifth, FY Liddy van der Linden (Worcester, MA) doubled and moved to third on a hit by SO Kim Bechard (Lewiston, ME). SR Jamie Morrison (Auburn, ME) ripped a 2-RBI single to right center field to put the Monks up 4-1.

The Polar Bears threatened in the fifth with two runs to make it 4-3, but St. Joe's held on for the split.  The Lady Monks end their season with 16 wins, 17 losses
