Eagles Drop First Two Games in Series Versus ACU

Prescott- Embry-Riddle women's softball team drops first two games of the series against Arizona Christian University.

Despite a great day at the plate by Hannah DeLuna, The Eagles were unable to keep up with the Firestorm bats. DeLuna went 4 for 6 on the day with two homeruns and two doubles. The Firestorm came out swinging in game one racking up 18 runs on 18 hits and seven Eagle errors. The Firestorm was led by Meaghen Nelson who went 5 for 5 including a double and a homerun, Presley Whetman who went 4 for 4 with a double and a homerun and Jasmine Aguilar who was 3 for 3 with a homerun. The Eagles led by DeLuna also had offensive help from Simonne Davis and Kaila Romero who each went 2 for 3, including a homerun by Davis.

Although the outcome was the same as game one with an Eagles loss, game two was a much more even matchup at the plate. The Eagles were only out hit by the Firestorm 12 to 13 and committed less errors on the field but were unable to capitalize and come away with the win. Samantha Nelson led The Eagles offensively going 4 for 4 with a double. Hannah DeLuna continued to have a great day at the plate going 2 for 3 again with a double and a homerun.

The Eagles return to action today against the Firestorm at 2:00 PM. Check out pictures from yesterday's game on our Facebook page. GO EAGLES!
