Softball honors 2020 seniors, splits with Georgia College

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla. — The Flagler College Softball team welcomed four of its six 2020 seniors back to Flagler Field Saturday for a pre-game celebration ahead of the Saints' Peach Belt Conference doubleheader split with Georgia College, where Flagler dropped game one, 10-8, and followed it up with a 9-0, five-inning victory in the night cap.
 
Of the quartet able to be in attendance was Jaclyn Mijuskovic, Brittney Rayfield, Maria Kappos, and Natalie Murphy as head coach Kathryn Geouge and assistant coach Kaylee Allen presented them with a gift and flowers. Genevieve Mangini and Cassie Patterson weren't able to make it, but were the other two seniors who saw their seasons cut short because of the COVID-19 pandemic a season ago. On Sunday in the regular-season finale, Flagler will honor six more seniors ahead of the doubleheader versus Georgia Southwestern at 2 p.m.
 
In the first game, the Saints (16-18, 9-9 PBC) were slow to get on the scoreboard; however, unfortunately, the Bobcats (11-25, 5-15) weren't. A pair of home runs — a grand slam in the second by Ashley Schell and a solo shot from Haley Howell in the third — gave the Bobcats momentum with a six-run lead that Flagler attempted to get back but never could take ahold of.
 
Georgia College added four more runs after that, but of the Bobcats' 10 scored only five were earned for Kyra Gipson (L, 13-7) as she scattered eight hits on those five earned while striking out eight. Despite a pair of three-run innings — one in the third and fifth — plus a two-run fourth to come within a two runs of GC, the Saints doomed themselves with five errors, which prolonged innings and kept the offense off the field.
 
The Saints knocked across 14 hits as Mackenzie Smith led the pack with three, while NaJah Gerrald, Bella Munoz and Alyssa Velez had two. Mercedes Salinas, Kyleigh Taylor, Paige Maseda, Zoe Mooney and Courtney Robinson all had a hit apiece as Munoz, Salinas and Smith had two RBI each.
 
In game two, Flagler saw the same number of hits and limited its errors to just one as Madelyn Wise (W, 3-7) was nearly perfect in the circle for the Saints. The sophomore tossed a four-hit shutout of the Bobcats while striking out a trio to out-duel Golden Thrower, who won the first game in relief. Leading the Saints at the plate again was Smith as the sophomore started her 3-for-3 second game with a two-run home run — her second of the season — to jumpstart Flagler.
 
Mooney, Maseda, Munoz, Salinas, Morgan Murphy all had two hits each, while Gerrald had one in a two-RBI triple to match the RBI of Salinas. Smith had three RBI to lead the Saints in the run-rule night cap.
