DULUTH, Minn. (csssaints.com) – The St. Scholastica softball team was defeated twice by the University of Wisconsin-Superior on Wednesday up at Saints Field in an Upper Midwest Athletic Conference (UMAC) doubleheader.
 
Game 1: UWS 2, CSS 0
The Saints would be held hitless in game one of the doubleheader and had only three baserunners in a 2-0 loss to the Yellowjackets (7-15, 4-0 UMAC).
 
Superior scored both of its runs on RBI singles in the fifth inning.
 
Maggie Schley (Mounds View, Minn./Irondale HS) struck out nine batters and scattered six hits in the loss. Ashley Taipale threw the no-hitter for the Yellowjackets.
 
Game 2: UWS 4, CSS 3 (F/8)
The second game saw the Saints jump out to an early lead, only to see the Yellowjackets tie the game in the seventh inning and then score the game-winner in extra innings to complete the sweep 4-3.
 
Nicole Anders (Port Angeles, Wash./Sequim HS) led off the game for the Saints with a single for the first hit of the day. Two batters later Schley hit a ground-rule double to give CSS a 1-0 lead. Krysta Felber (Rogers, Minn./Rogers HS) then hit a sacrifice fly to bring in Schley and make it 2-0.
 
After UWS added a run in the second, Schley hit a solo home run over the right field fence to make it 3-1 in the third inning.
 
It remained 3-1 until the top of the seventh. The 'jackets began the inning with back-to-back doubles. Then a pair of sacrifice flies tied the contest at 3-3 to send the game to extra innings.
 
In the eighth, UWS would get a two-out RBI double to take its first lead of the game at 4-3. CSS would get the tying runner on base to lead off the bottom frame, but would do nothing with it, falling 4-3.
 
Olivia Howe (Scandia, Minn./Forest Lake HS) went seven innings and struck out four in the defeat. Taipale also pitched most of game two to earn the win once again. Schley was 2-for-3 with two RBIs and two runs scored. Toni Bishop (Roseville, Minn./Roseville HS) also had a pair of hits.
 
Up Next
The Saints (10-12, 2-2 UMAC) will have their first conference road action of the season when they face preseason favorite University of Northwestern (Minn.) in St. Paul on Saturday. The first game of the doubleheader is scheduled for 1 p.m.
