Early Homers Push Softball Past Lehigh, 5-2

GREENSBORO, N.C. – The UNC Greensboro (UNCG) softball team kept the lead throughout a 5-2 victory over Lehigh on Sunday in non-conference play at UNCG Softball Stadium.
 
The Spartans are now 18-12 overall with their third-straight win.
  • Lehigh did little damage in the top of the first, with just one walk as Salem Ward retired the side.
  • In the bottom of the first, UNCG's Kaylyn Belfield led off with a single and Macy Michael moved her over to second on a sacrifice bunt.
  • Following a walk drawn by Nya South, Laney Deane crushed a 1-1 count over the center field wall for a three-run homer to put the Spartans up 3-0. This was Deane's seventh home run of the season.
  • The Mountain Hawks stranded runners on in the top of the second and third, but UNCG's defense performed, keeping them from moving Lehigh around the bases.
  • In the bottom of the third, Macy Michael led off with a solo homer to right center field to give UNCG a 4-0 advantage and adding to her season total to six home runs.
  • After UNCG switched pitchers in the top of the fifth, Lehigh drew back-to-back walks, before UNCG got its first out.
  • The Mountain Hawks' Sydney Parlett reached by way of a fielder's choice and the high throw advanced Maia D'Amico across home plate to cut the deficit to three, 4-1.
  • UNCG earned a run back in the bottom of the sixth with two outs and the bases loaded. Rylie Williams drove the ball out to left field for a sacrifice fly that scored Layla Carr from third for a 5-1 advantage.
  • Lehigh threatened in the seventh putting the first two batters on base by way of a single and a walk, but Nya South at first extended her arm to catch a high line drive doubling up the Mountain Hawks at first.
  • Kelly Fricker then singled with two outs, putting runners on the corners and Parlett's base knock to left field pushed across a run for Lehigh, 5-2.
  • Nadia Andarowski, in relief, got out of the game with a pop up to extend the Spartans' win streak to three.
