Mahoney 2 for 2 as River Hawks split for the day
Shippensburg University scored three runs over the fifth and sixth innings to hand UMass Lowell a 6-3 loss Friday afternoon at the West Virginia Wesleyan Softball Tournament.
With the loss, UMass Lowell slipped to 3-9 overall entering Saturday's twin bill against Bloomsburg (9:00) and Lock Haven (1:00). Earlier on Friday, UMass Lowell defeated Edinboro, 10-6.
Shippensburg improved to 7-2 with its second win over UMass Lowell this spring. The Raiders defeated the River Hawks, 1-0, on Feb. 24 in Salisbury, N.C.
Senior C Brianna Mahoney (Billerica, Mass.) led UMass Lowell as she batted 2 for 2 with a two-run shot in the fifth inning. Sophomore DH Abby Jamieson (Billerica, Mass.) went 1 for 2 with a run and a walk.
Sophomore P Courtney Lanfranchi (Burlington, Mass.) took the loss to slip to 1-2 this season. Lanfranchi surrendered seven hits, three earned runs and no walks with two strikeouts over 3.2 innings.
Sophomore P Liz Parkins (3-0) earned the win as she allowed seven hits, two earned runs and two walks while striking out five.
Shippensburg carried a 3-0 lead into the fifth inning when, after a single by sophomore 1B Daniele Crutcher (Londonderry. N.H.), Mahoney cracked a home run to left center to cut the deficit to 3-2.
Shippensburg, however, scored two in the bottom half of the inning behind a solo shot from sophomore DH Jessie Trammell and an RBI single up the middle by sophomore 1B Maddie Justice.
Jamieson scored in the top of the sixth on a groundout, but the River Hawks could muster no closer.
