Seawolves Lose Two to Dean

Franklin, MA - This afternoon the Lady Seawolves traveled to Massachusetts to face off against the Lady Bulldogs of Dean College in a nonconference double header. The Lady Bulldogs were able to capitalize on errors committed by the Lady Seawolves and defeat SMCC in the first game by a score of 11-2 and in the second game by a score of 7-3. 

In the first game the Seawolves were trailing 1-0 at the end of the first inning but were able to put up two runs in the second to give themselves a 2-1 advantage. The Seawolves' lead was shortlived however as the Lady Bulldogs racked up four runs in the third inning and tacked on six more in the fourth to go ahead 11-2. The Lady Seawolves committed seven errors and gave up six hits during the contest. Shortstop Anna Allard (Parsonsfield, ME) was the sole extra base hitter for SMCC, crushing a triple in the third inning. 

Game two was a much better defensive performance for the Lady Seawolves. Pitcher Charlotte Lewis (Chatham, NH) found her rythmn on the mound striking out five Dean College batters. Allard had another noteworthy offensive performance going two for four at the plate and third baseman Lindsey Howell (Limington, ME) was an impressive three for three at the plate, while scoring one of the three Seawolves' runs but the offensive firepower wasn't enough as the Bulldogs pulled away with the 7-3 victory.

With these two losses the Lady Seawolves slip to 6-14 overall and 3-4 in YSCC conference play. They will be back on the field on Tuesday April 8th at home against Northern Essex Community College at 4pm.
