Stone’s slam lifts Skyhawks to split day one with Orediggers

BLOOMFIELD, N.M. – The Fort Lewis College softball team split games one and two of a four-game Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference series, defeating Colorado School of Mines 11-9 in game one and falling to the Orediggers 8-5 in game two on a windy, squally Sunday afternoon at Bloomfield High School.
 
Due to weather constraints in Durango, Colo., the four-game series is being held at Bloomfield High School in Bloomfield, N.M. The split lifts Fort Lewis to 4-9 overall and 2-4 in RMAC play. Mines also rises to 6-6 overall and 5-1 in RMAC contests.
 
GAME ONE – FORT LEWIS 11, MINES 9
The series opener was an absolute slugfest for the Skyhawks. Tallying two home runs and four doubles, six of the Skyhawks ten hits all came with extra bases. Mines jumped on the board early with a two-run first inning, but Alex Tenorio lifted a two-run homer into the wind and out to right centerfield in the bottom half of the inning, knotting it up at two apiece.
 
In the top of the second, Mines racked up four additional runs on a pair of miscues by Fort Lewis with two outs. Just an inning later in the bottom of the third, Catheryn Rodman, Caydee Farnworth, and Izzy Giroux hit back-to-back-to-back doubles after a leadoff walk from Tenorio to cut the deficit to one. Later in the same inning, Cara Daugherty reached base on a single, stole second, and scored to tie the game 6-6 on a sacrifice fly from Sloan Shotton.
 
The Orediggers racked up one insurance run in the top of the fourth and two more in the top of the seventh thanks to a two-run blast, pinning the Skyhawks down 9-6 with just three outs remaining. A pair of singles alongside a walk and a hit-by-pitch loaded the bases and brought in one run. With the bases loaded, none other than Kayla Stone hit a grand slam to dead centerfield to walk it off for the Skyhawks.
 
Lauren Decker (0-1) was dealt the loss after allowing three earned runs on a hit-by-pitch, a single, and Stone's walk-off blast. Amiee Shanks (3-1) notched her third win of the season, throwing 3.0 innings of relief and allowing just two earned runs on three hits.
 
GAME TWO – MINES 8, FORT LEWIS 5
Fort Lewis struck first in game two, pushing one run across in the bottom of the opening frame on a ground ball from Stone after Shotton, who reached base on a lead-off walk, went first to third on a wild pitch. The Skyhawks tallied two additional runs in the bottom of the third inning thanks to back-to-back solo home runs from Stone and Tenorio.
 
Mines jumped out to an 8-4 lead after scoring two runs in each frame from the third to sixth innings. Tenorio cut the deficit in the bottom of the seventh with a two-out solo home run, but the Skyhawks could not produce any additional offense.
 
Mines' Kat Miller (1-0) earned her first win of the year, throwing 4.0 innings of one-hit relief while forcing six ground outs and fanning four. Farnworth (0-5) was dealt the loss for the Skyhawks, going 3.0 innings, and allowing four runs – only two of which were earned – on one hit, four walks, and four strikeouts.
 
DAY TWO
Tomorrow the Skyhawks are back at Bloomfield High School once again for games three and four against the Orediggers. The first pitch of game three is scheduled for 3:00 p.m.
