Spartans, Eagles Edge Seahawks on Saturday

GREENSBORO, North Carolina – The UNCW softball team dropped two close games on Saturday to UNC Greensboro and Morehead State as part of the Spiro Classic at UNCG Softball Stadium.

The Seahawks (2-5) held leads in both contests before falling to the Spartans (5-3) and Eagles (1-1) by a 4-3 score in both games.

UNCW concludes the weekend on Sunday with another twinbill vs. MSU (11 a.m. on FloSports) and UNCG (4 p.m. on ESPN+). Live stats will continue to be available on UNCWStats.com.

GAME 1 | UNCG 4, UNCW 3

Designated player and pitcher Jorde Chartrand (2-3) connected on the go-ahead home run in the fifth inning to cap a three RBI game that also saw the right-hander pick up the win in the circle for the Spartans.

After the Seahawks rallied in the third and fourth innings to take a 3-2 lead, Chartrand put UNCG back in front when she sent the first pitch of the at-bat over the left-center fence with two outs in the fifth to also score Samantha Lagrama.

Junior right-hander Carrigan Ewers (0-2) took the loss, allowing two hits and two runs in two innings of relief.

Lagrama and Chartrand both drove in one run for the Spartans in the top of the first off UNCW starter Amberlyn Pearce, who tossed four innings on Saturday, to take an early 2-0 lead.

The Seahawks evened the game in the third when graduate first baseman Janel Gamache stepped to the plate with two out and Arial Pearce on base. The reigning Colonial Athletic Association Player of the Week launched her second round-tripper in as many games to tie the game 2-all.

Senior center fielder Skylar Stockton capped a two-hit day with an RBI single up the middle to score Santiago and briefly give the Seahawks the advantage in the fourth before Chartrand's homer an inning later.

GAME 2 | Morehead State 4, UNCW 3

MSU rallied past UNCW in the bottom of the seventh inning in the nightcap that featured four lead changes and three ties.

The Eagles' Lennon Spicer (1-0) tossed three scoreless innings in relief of starter Jessie Begley to pick up the win. The duo combined for five hits, three runs, two earned, a strikeout and three walks.

UNCW's Amberlyn Pearce (0-2) was tagged with the loss after entering in the seventh inning. Starter Emily Winstead allowed eight hits, three runs, two earned, with seven strikeouts and two walks in her season debut.

Santiago handed the UNCW the lead with RBI singles on two separate occasions, beginning in the first inning to score Gamache.

MSU tied and took the lead over the next two innings with a home run by freshman Emily Williams in the second and a Seahawk error that allowed senior Kirya Kingery to reach on a bunt attempt in the third inning.

Freshman catcher Maddy Altiers tied the contest in the next frame with a double down the left-field line and Santiago put the Seahawks ahead with her second single in the top of the fifth.

The Eagles, however, plated runs in the bottom of the sixth and seventh innings, including a game-winning walk with the bases loaded by Williams, to pull out the win.

GAME NOTES: Santiago hit a combined 3-for-4 with two RBI and two runs scored … It was the first meeting between UNCW and MSU … Winstead faced one batter after re-entering for Pearce in the seventh inning vs. the Eagles … Gamache extended her hit streak to six games and on-base streak to seven … Santiago and Mary Sobataka were hit by pitches vs. the Spartans … Santiago has been hit by 21 pitches in her career, matching the fourth-most by a Seahawk along with Gamache and Merritt Wilkinson … Winstead has recorded seven or more strikeouts in 17 appearances.
