Lincoln (STKN) at Folsom Softball 5.24.22

LINCOLN AND FOLSOM ON TUESDAY VYING FOR A SPOT IN THE D1 FINALS ON SATURDAY
NICK PECORARO HERE; LET'S GO
IT WAS A PITCHER'S DUEL
OUR SCHOLAR ATHLETE OF THE YEAR EMMA FALEN
TAKING LINCOLN TO SCHOOL IN THE FIRST
SHE HAD NINE K'S ON TUESDAY
BUT LINCOLN'S PEJA GOOLD WAS JUST AS GOOD;
THE UT CHATTANOOGA COMMIT HAD 9 PUNCHOUTS OF HER OWN
BOTTOM FOUR; WE'RE SCORELESS WHEN FOLSOM'S HAILEY SCOTT
SLAPS ONE TO THIRD; THE THROW GETS AWAY, AND SCOTT MOVES INTO SCORING POSITION WITH NOBODY OUT
TWO BATTERS LATER; MARINA MEDINA LINES ONE INTO THE GAP
BUT CHECK OUT FRESHMAN CENTER FIELDER OLIVIA HOLTZ
SNARES IT ON THE RUN; TURNS AND FIRES TO SECOND FOR THE DOUBLE PLAY
THAT WOULD END THE INNING
TO THE FIFTH; SHAY SACAY WITH A SHALLOW FLY TO CENTER;
BUT IT'S HOLTZ AGAIN
HOLTZ UP, WAIT A MINUTE!
DID I MENTION SHE'S A FRESHMAN?? YOU GO GIRL!
FALEN AND GOOLD STILL TOSSING GOOSE EGGS INTO THE SEVENTH
UNTIL DANIELLA HUNTER SHOOTS ONE TO THE OUTFIELD AND GETS JORDAN HAYES TO THIRD
AND THE TROJANS ARE IN BUSINESS
AND WITH ONE OUT AND RUNNERS ON SECOND AND THIRD
TARA FORNACIARI LAYS DOWN A SQUEEZE BUNT
BOLD STRATEGY COTTON, LET'S SEE IF IT PAYS OFF FOR THEM
THE THROW GETS AWAY; AND IT'S ONE NOTHING LINCOLN
A WILD SEQUENCE HERE; BASES LOADED
JUSTICE REBULDELA PUNCHES IT OUT TO RIGHT
ONE RUN SCORES; THE THROW IS CUT OFF
ONE RUNNER IS SAFE AT THIRD; BUT FOLSOM GETS THE TAG ON THE TWO TRAIL RUNNERS
IT'S THE OL' 9-3-5-6 DOUBLE PLAY
SOMEHOW FOLSOM ESCAPES BEING DOWN JUST 2- NOTHING
THE BULLDOGS WOULDN'T GO DOWN EASILY IN THE BOTTOM HALF
SHAY SACAY AND SIENNA PRICE EACH HAD TWO-OUT SINGLES
BUT GOOLD GETS THE POP UP FOR THE FINAL OUT
AND FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE 1998, THE TROJANS OF STOCKTON EARN THEIR WAY BACK TO THE SECTION FINALS
