USM wins one, ties another

At Beverly, Mass., sophomore pitcher Katie Mainville allowed just two hits and no earned runs as the Huskies came from behind in the late innings to post a 3-1 victory. The second game was halted at 4-4 because of darkness and officials from both schools will announce a decision on whether the game will be resumed or end in a tie.

In the first game, Darci Holland stroked a two-out, two-run double in the sixth inning to put Southern Maine up 2-1. The Huskies added insurance run in the seventh on an RBI single by Christen Lachappelle.

In the second game, Kristen Tong started USM off with a two-run double. Endicott rallied with a two-run double by Elyse Colbey. In the fourth, Southern Maine went ahead again with singles from Angela Cote and Lachappelle. But Megan Young, Laura Mangini and Laura Schack all singled for two more runs, tying the game.
