Niners Split at Appalachian State
Sept. 29, 2008
Taylorsville, N.C. - Following up on a 2-0 weekend to start fall play, Charlotte traveled to the northern end of the Tar Heel state and split its doubleheader with Appalachian State on Saturday in Taylorsville.
Game one saw Charlotte drop a 2-1 decision with Sarah Malene scoring the lone 49er run in the loss.
Gina Allen picked up the loss in the circle after entering the game in relief of Emily Jeffrey who got the start and recorded the no-decision.
In the second game, Charlotte's offense racked up nine runs as it defeated the Mountaineers to earn the split doubledip with a 9-1 victory.
Senior Cee Brooks had a strong performance at the plate by going 2-3 with a homerun over the left center field fence, while Tenaya Tucker was also 2-3 with a double and Natalyn Blanton had a perfect 3-3 performance as she nearly hit the cycle by recording a triple, double and a single.
In the circle, sophomore hurler Katy Hackett picked up the win for the Niners.
Charlotte is back in action this weekend when they come home to host their final tournament of the fall on Saturday and Sunday.
The Niners open the weekend on Saturday when they battle Campbell and UNC-Greensboro, before taking on Greensboro and North Carolina on Sunday to wrap up the fall slate.
