Softball Bested by Assumption 3-2

Rindge, N.H. – The Adelphi University softball team was defeated by Assumption, 3-2, on Friday afternoon during Northeast 10 Championship Weekend, and will now enter the loser bracket of the tournament.


Series History:

  • Adelphi held the season series lead, 3-1, entering the matchup.
  • Prior to today's game, the programs had faced off 31 times dating back to the 2009 season.
  • Adelphi (35-20, 27-9 NE10) is now 24-10 all-time against the Greyhounds (29-25, 21-15 NE10).


Highlights:


How it Happened:
  • The Panthers struck first in the opening inning. After Jaylen Wright drew a walk and advanced on a groundout, Klepper ripped a double into left field to bring home the game's first run.
  • Assumption tied the contest in the second inning. Following a leadoff double and a groundout to move the runner over, the Greyhounds plated the tying run on a wild pitch.
  • In the third inning, Adelphi put runners on first and second but was unable to capitalize.
  • Assumption took the lead in the top of the fourth. A pair of leadoff hits set the table before a two-run double gave the Greyhounds a 3-1 advantage.
  • The Panthers answered in the bottom half of the inning. After Comer started a two-out rally with a single up the middle, Hershkovitz smacked an RBI double down the right field line to score Comer from first and cut the deficit to one.
  • In the sixth, the Panthers received a leadoff single from Klepper but were unable to advance the runner, as a double play eventually halted the rally.
  • Lily Kenney entered in relief during the fourth inning and held the Greyhounds scoreless for the remainder of the game.
  • In Adelphi's final turn at bat, Hershkovitz lined a single into the right-center gap but was thrown out attempting to stretch it into a double before the next two batters were retired in order.
Up Next:
  • Head Coach Katie Apostolopoulos and the Panthers return to action later tonight on Friday, May 8, during Northeast 10 Championship Weekend. Adelphi will face Southern New Hampshire University at 5 p.m. on the campus of Franklin Pierce University in an elimination game of the double-elimination tournament.
