Gardner-Webb Defeats NCCU 14-5 to Win Four at Western Carolina Tournament
March 10, 2024 | Softball
Runnin’ Bulldogs extend winning streak to 10 straight games with run rule victory
The Runnin' Bulldogs took a 5-0 lead in the top of the second inning with Taylor Dreher, Emily Garcia, Jailyn Tineo Meredith Wayland, and Adrienne Visintine all coming around to score. The Eagles made it 5-3 game in the bottom of the second with a three-run bomb of their own. The 'Dawgs answered with a Tineo homerun in the fourth, followed by a Visintine grand slam in the fifth to make it 10-3. NCCU tallied one in the fifth and another in the final frame, but it was Gardner-Webb adding four more runs in the sixth to win the game by run rule.
"The offense was great this weekend.", said coach Wigness. "We have been waiting all year to see this type of offensive consistency throughout an entire weekend. We are going to keep working to continue that on into conference play. Our pitching was good, defense made plays. Adrienne Vistintine hit the ball hard this weekend. She missed the fall rehabbing an injury and is just now starting to get her rhythm back. This weekend was a great sign and just a small glimpse into the type of player she is. I expect great things from her the rest of the year."
The Runnin' Bulldogs will return to the field on March 12 to take on Furman University. Their scheduled doubleheader will begin at 4:00 p.m.
