Softball Drops Heartbreaker To Boston College
3/29/2019 8:50:00 PM | Softball
BRIGHTON, Mass. – The NC State softball team (17-15, 0-7 ACC) dropped a heartbreaker on Friday evening against Boston College (11-17, 3-4 ACC) at Harrington Athletics Village. The Wolfpack held a two-run lead heading into the final half inning of the contest, but the Eagles plated three runs to take game one of the series with a 4-3 walk-off win.
Of Note
-Randi Farricker (single, home run) belted her fourth homer and the team's 38th of the season, driving in all three of the Pack's runs in the contest.
-Five other players tallied a base hit in the game.
-Devin Wallace had a strong outing in the circle, as she had a no-hitter going until the seventh inning. She gave up two singles before Sydney Nester (8-4) relieved her and was charged with the loss after giving up the walk-off run.
How It Happened
-BC scored a run in the third on Kennedy Labshere's groundout to short after Maddison Hamilton led off with a walk, and a passed ball followed by a wild pitch moved her to third.
-The Wolfpack countered in the fourth thanks to Farricker's three-run homer to right field. Brigette Nordberg singled through the left side and Skylar Johnston drew a one-out walk to start the inning.
-A pair of base hits and walk loaded the bases with no outs for Boston College in the bottom of the seventh, and a 2-RBI double by Allyson Moore to left center knotted the game.
-A walk-off RBI fielder's choice allowed the Eagles to come out on top.
On Deck
NC State and Boston College will play the second game of the series Saturday, as first pitch is set for 1 p.m. at Harrington Athletics Village. The contest will be broadcast on the ACC Network Extra.
