Tasma's walk off home run helps DU split double header against Madonna

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Davenport split their double header vs Madonna 1-1 during a low scoring series. Both the teams are at the top of the WHAC standings and showed why tonight. The Crusaders won the first game of the double header 2-0 and only recorded one hit that was a double or better during the game. Lindsay Tasma won the second game for DU with a walk off home run in the bottom of the ninth inning. Both teams only have two losses in conference play after todays games.

The Panthers offense struggled during the first game of the double header. Davenport was limited to only four hits during the game, was never walked and couldn't score a run. Despite the low number of hits Davenport still had a couple opportunities to score and were just un-able to convert. In the first inning French advanced to second on a sac fly from Rowe and then the next two batters popped up and lined out to leave her stranded. In the bottom of the seventh inning Obetts hit a single to give DU life, however the next batter grounded out to end the game.

Davenport shook off the loss from the first game and won a barn burner during the second game. The game was so close that they needed extra innings to determine a winner. Tasma crushed a home run in the bottom of the ninth inning with two outs to help DU take the win. Teunissen was a monster on the mount, only giving up four hits and striking out nine batters during the game. Tasma also broke the school record for the most times getting hit by a pitch in a single game. She was hit three times during the second game against the Crusaders.
