Softball Drops Doubleheader to Princeton in First Ivy Home Games, 1-0, 6-0
4/6/2019 5:52:00 PM | Softball
PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Brown University softball dropped a doubleheader to Princeton University in its first Ivy League home games of the season, 1-0 and 6-0, on Saturday afternoon at the Brown Softball Field.
The Bears (8-16, 1-7 Ivy) allowed just one run in the top of the fourth in game one and limited the Tigers (9-16, 5-3 Ivy) to just one run after the top of the first in game two before the visitors took both contests.
"Outside of one inning today, our pitchers held Princeton to two runs over 13 innings," Brown head coach Kate Refsnyder said. "We just have to find a way to get our bats going in the series finale tomorrow."
In game one, freshman Lauren Innerst (San Jose, Calif.) threw a complete-game 7.0 innings and gave up just one run with three strikeouts. In game two, junior Emily Waters (Northridge, Calif.) limited Princeton to one run with four strikeouts over 6.2 innings of relief. Between the two games, senior Cat Seitz (Poway, Calif.) went 2-for-5 with two doubles.
Next, Brown concludes the three-game series with Princeton tomorrow, Sunday, Apr. 7, with a single game at 12:30 p.m. (ESPN+).
Game 1: Princeton 1, Brown 0
Freshman Lauren Innerst threw her fifth complete game of the season and allowed just one run, but Brown fell to Princeton, 1-0, in game one.
The Bears threatened in both the bottom of the sixth and the last of the seventh, but the Tigers' lone run in the top of the fourth held up.
Senior Cat Seitz (Poway, Calif.) hit a double in the bottom of the seventh while senior Annie Scarangella (Tucson, Ariz.) and sophomore Karina Chavarria (San Bruno, Calif.) each tallied one hit.
Innerst (San Jose, Calif.) tossed a complete-game 7.0 innings, giving up one run on eight hits with three strikeouts in the loss (3-5). She pitched out of bases-loaded jams in the top of the first and top of the fifth as she forced the Tigers to leave 10 runners on base.
Princeton scored the only run of the game in the top of the fourth as Kaitlyn Waslawski led off the inning with an infield single before stealing second. She then advanced to third on a bunt from Madison Hoffman and scored on a bunt from Alex Viscusi.
Brown threatened in the last of the sixth as Chavarria opened the stanza with an infield single. She made her way to third base on a sacrifice bunt and a ground out before Princeton worked out of the inning.
The Bears pressured the Tigers again in the last of the seventh as Seitz led off the inning with a double to right center field prior to the visitors recording the contest's final three outs.
Princeton starter Allie Reynolds hurled a complete-game in the win (5-8), notching four strikeouts and allowing three hits in the shutout.
Game 2: Princeton 6, Brown 0
Brown junior Emily Waters allowed just one run over 6.2 innings in relief, but Princeton closed the doubleheader with a 6-0 win in game two.
The Bears held the Tigers to one run after the top of the first, but the visitors plated five runs in the opening frame on their way to the win.
Waters (Northridge, Calif.) registered four strikeouts and allowed one run on nine hits in her 6.2-inning outing.
Senior Cat Seitz (Poway, Calif.) posted her second double of the day, and sophomore Anya Schmitz (Santa Barbara, Calif.) added a hit.

Seitz led off the bottom of the first with a double, and the Bears placed runners on first and second with two outs before Princeton escaped the danger.
