MARYVILLE, Tenn. - A late-inning push by Randolph College Softball wasn't enough to overcome an early deficit as the WildCats fell 7-4 to Maryville (TN) in game one. For the second game, Randolph exploded early and delivered an impressive 15-4 victory. 

After Maryville (5-11) jumped to an early lead with runs in the first and third innings, the Scots broke the game open with a five-run fourth inning. Randolph (1-11)responded in the fifth, capitalizing on defensive miscues. After a sac fly from Bethany Martz put the WildCats on the board, Rylee Humble ripped a two-run double to right center, cutting the lead 7-3. Randolph added another run in the sixth when Chesney Shook's sac fly brought home Kieran Wrighter, making it a 7-4 game.
