Ephs Lose to Wisconsin Whitewater in Rain Shortened Day

Scores: Whitewater 5, Williams 1

Location: Clermont, FL
Records: Williams 4-3, Whitewater 

The Short Story: Williams and Whitewater both had seven hits but Whitewater scored four runs with two outs in the first four innings to put the Ephs away in the rain shortened contest.

Coach's Take: "We didn't do anything really poorly, we just didn't put things together today. Elyse pitched well overall but wasn't able to shut down innings. On offense we couldn't string things together.  We're looking forward to keeping the learning going and getting back at it tomorrow." - Kris Herman

How It Happened

• Whitewater struck first, plating two runs in the first on two hits and a walk, surrounded by three strikeouts.
• Elyse Chan had a season-leading six strikeouts on the mound.
• The tying run for the Ephs was cut down at the plate on a strong throw by the Warhawk's left fielder
• Torrential downpours stopped the game in the bottom of the fifth. This makes it a complete game and Whitewater gets the win, thwarting any hopes for a Williams comeback.

Inside the Box Score

• Sydney Fleming and Ronni Ramos both had two hits for the Ephs.
• Fleming drove in the only run on a hit in the third inning.

Next up for the Ephs - Today's second game was rained out so the Ephs will play tomorrow at 2:45 pm vs. Bendictine of Chicago.
