ERIE, Pa. – Notre Dame College battled back in game two, but ultimately lost to Gannon University by a score of 3-0 in game one and 8-4 in the second game, on Tuesday afternoon.

Gannon scored the first run of the day in the second inning on an RBI double by Taylor Wilp, another run on a single in the third by Autumn Smith and one more run in the sixth with a Megan Dietrick RBI single.

The only Falcon to reach scoring position in the first game was sophomore Katelyn Rheude who singled with two outs and then moved to second base on a single by freshman Mikaela Fording, in the third inning. NDC was held to just four hits in the game.

Sophomore McKenzie Zigmont (5-7) took a tough loss after allowing just two earned runs in six innings of work. Madi Beining (5-3) threw a complete game shutout for Gannon. Smith and Wilp both had two hits.

Gannon, again, jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first inning of game two. With runners on first and second base, Kaity Stocker singled to left, scoring a run. Then, Maria Taliani scored two more runs with a double to left field.

The next hitter, senior Halli Swiger, singled to right field, scoring Stephens.
