Softball Ties Best Start to Season in Program History
2/22/2022 6:39:00 PM | Softball
RALEIGH – NC State softball extended its win streak to six games on Tuesday after taking down UNC Greensboro, 4-3 at Dail Softball Stadium.
The Wolfpack improved to 10-1 which ties for the best 11-game start in program history.
Logan Morris led the way for the Pack at the plate with a 2-for-3 day at the plate, her fourth two-hit performance of the season, with one RBI and a run scored. Additionally, Morris increased her on-base streak to a team-best 11 games.
Randi Farricker racked up a hit with a game-high two RBI, her fifth multi-RBI game of the season. In the circle, Maddie McPherson improved to 2-0 after tossing 5.1 scoreless innings with six strikeouts and only giving up one hit.
NC State began the scoring as Farricker hit a single to center field that scored Morris and Brittany Jackson in the first inning to take a 2-0 lead. In the second, UNCG responded with two home runs to gain a 3-2 lead.
Michele Tarpey was able to tie the game in the fourth as she hit a RBI single, scoring pinch runner Gracie Roberts from second. In the bottom of the fifth, Morris hit a hot shot that bounced off the diving third baseman's glove and rolled far enough away to allow Jackson to score the game-winning run.
Quick Hits
- Kaylee Lambrecht increased her team-leading hitting streak to six games
- Jackson extended her on-base streak to 10 games, only trailing Morris (11)
- NC State improved to 5-0 when scoring in the first inning
Up Next
