* Southern Illinois Stifles Aces Softball Sweep

Evansville softball was not able to come away with the three-game sweep against Southern Illinois as the Salukis defeated the Aces, 4-3, on Tuesday night in Carbondale, Ill.

While producing 10 hits against SIU, senior Kendall Kautz accounted for nearly one third of those as she went 3-for-4 at bat while notching one run, two RBIs, and one home run. Senior Alicia Betancur and freshman Kirsten O’Conner also added to the total as they combined to go 4-for-7 at bat. Sophomore Kayla Fortner grabbed her second triple of the season as she went 1-for-3 at the plate while scoring one run and added an RBI to the Aces’ total of three on the day.

UE will wrap up its slate on the road as they head to Terre Haute, Ind. this weekend to face Indiana State in a three-game conference matchup.

Game Recap: SIU 4, UE 3
While Evansville was retired in order in the first half of the first inning, Southern Illinois got off to a hot start as a bases loaded home run tallied four early runs for the Salukis as they took the lead over the Aces, 4-0.

As Evansville moved to the top of the second frame, four singles allowed runners to fill the bases, but SIU’s Brittney Lang worked her way out of a jam and left all three stranded as Southern Illinois continued to lead UE, 4-0.

With a scoreless next four innings, Evansville was able to tally a run on the board as Kautz homered and made it a 4-1 game heading into the bottom half of the sixth inning.

UE shut down the Salukis momentum in the sixth as freshman pitcher Sarah Baldwin and the Evansville defense worked themselves out of a one out, bases loaded situation in which SIU grounded into a double play and were left scoreless while still maintaining the lead, 4-1.

The Aces were able to manufacture a pair of runs in the top of the seventh after a triple by Fortner advanced senior Tamara Robey to home plate. While Southern Illinois called for a pitching change, Kautz was able to notch yet another RBI single to drive in Fortner. With the Salukis still holding onto a 4-3 lead, UE fell short after a ground out to the pitcher left one stranded and SIU was able to end the inning and the game with a 4-3 victory over Evansville.

Southern Illinois’ Lang was able to pick up the win for the Salukis as she improved to 11-13 on the season. Lang pitched 6.2 innings as she struck out eight and allowed three runs. Katie Bertelsen notched her third save of the season as she pitched just 0.1 innings.

Senior pitcher Sarah Patterson suffered the loss as she moved to 12-9 in the circle while pitching 3.0 innings, striking out four, and allowing four runs. Baldwin also saw 3.0 innings as she struck out one and did not allow any runs.
