The last home series of the season for the Lady Buffs was a weekend full of important events for the team on April 20-21. The “Strike Out Cancer” weekend sponsored by Texas Oncology was also senior weekend and a battle for the second spot in the Lone Star Conference standings.
Texas Woman’s University started the scoring in-game one on Friday night. WTAMU wouldn’t let the Pioneers take a breath, scoring two runs in the second for a 3-1 lead. The next few innings was a battle of wills as TWU picked up four runs to take a 5-3 lead before WT tied up the game. The Lady Buffs ended the scoring in the fourth inning, taking an 8-5 lead that would hold for the rest of the seven-inning game.
TWU started the second Friday night game scoring in the first inning. The teams battled back and forth throughout the game to get the lead. It looked like WT would pick up the win in the fifth inning when they took a 5-4 lead due to an incorrect scorecard and added another run in the six inning. However, the Pioneers came back and score five runs in the seventh to win the game 9-6. Senior Marci Womack was recorded as the pitcher for both of Friday night’s games, taking her record to 19-9.
