THE ACTION
  • After making a brief outing in the opener, Davidson rebounded for a strong effort during the nightcap, allowing one run on five hits over the first 6.1 innings. Pace scratched out its only run in that time on King's RBI groundout in the third frame.
  • Davidson led off the sixth with a single before the next two Purple Knights were retired, but Booska (RBI), Flaherty, Nickerson (RBI) and Owens followed with four consecutive singles to put their team up 2-1.
  • With one out in the seventh, first-year Ava Edmond came off the bench to slug an opposite-field solo home run to tie the game. Luna doubled with two out before Davidson fanned the final batter to force extra innings.
  • Davidson left two Setters on base in the eighth before Bull dropped an RBI single into left field with two down in the ninth to give the visitors a 3-2 edge. However, Field's RBI knock tied it in the home half. Luna nearly won the game after blasting a double off the fence in left, but a 7-5-2 relay to the plate cut down Field trying to score the winning run. Junior Maddy Vaughn (Saratoga Springs, N.Y./Saratoga Springs), first-year Shaylee Branon (Troy, N.H./Monadnock Regional) and Booska combined on the play.
  • Davidson started the 10th on second base with the International Tiebreaker in effect but never got further than third base.
  • In the home half, Jenkins started on second base before King walked with one down. On the next pitch, Picerno launched a three-run, walk-off home run to straightaway center field.
