Softball Sweeps Saint Andrews

By MaKaylee Torbett

On Wednesday afternoon, the Tennessee Wesleyan softball team met with St. Andrews for a doubleheader. Coming into the season, the Lady Bulldogs have had high expectations, getting predicted to win the championship before the season started. At times the team has struggled, but with a couple of weeks left in the season, the plan is to get hot at the right time.

In game two of the doubleheader, Tennessee Wesleyan beat visiting St. Andrews by a score of 12-0 in five innings. Isabella Jenkins was awarded the win, giving her the 7th win of the season. She pitched four innings only allowing one hit. Gracie Calton closed the door on St. Andrews, tossing an inning of no-hit ball.

Bailee Phillips hit a home run in the game and had four RBIs to go with it. Phillips led the team with two hits alongside Tatum Massengale, Courtney Sneed, and Hallie DeArman. Phillips, Macy Chastain, and Taylor Penning had a knack for scoring as they all had two runs on the day. Haven Carter, Penning, Massengale, and Sneed each had an RBI in the game.

The wins for Tennessee Wesleyan put them at seventh in the conference with six games left in the regular season. The Lady Bulldogs are back in action April 14th at Union Commonwealth.
