Softball Loses Twice To End Music City Invite

On Saturday (Feb. 1) in the second and final day of the Music City Invitational outside of Nashville, Tenn., Ashland University's softball team lost 6-3 to McKendree and 6-1 to Illinois-Springfield to finish its opening 2025 weekend at 2-2.
 
In the day's first game vs. McKendree, the Bearcats opened the scoring in the top of the second inning with six runs.
 
The game remained at 6-0 until the bottom of the seventh, when the Eagles posted three runs on RBI singles from senior pinch-hitter Lily Rockwell, sophomore pinch-hitter Maren Metikosh and junior second baseman Danielle Robbins.
 
The contest vs. Springfield saw sophomore third baseman Sophia Martin rap an RBI double in the top of the second – only to have the Prairie Stars score once in the bottom of the second and five times in the bottom in the fourth.
 
…AND THE REST OF THE STORY
  • Against McKendree, Robbins and senior designated player Cassidy Shaffer each recorded two hits.
  • Freshman pitcher Abby Measel (0-1) allowed three hits, six runs and two walks in 1 2/3 innings.
  • The game vs. UIS saw Shaffer go 2-for-3, and junior pitcher Mady Hannahs (0-1) yield four hits, four runs (two earned) and four walks and strike out two in 3 2/3 innings.
UP NEXT
Four games on Feb. 21-22 at the Blue Bridge Battle.
