Gainesville, FL – Maddy Peres was masterful in game one of a Mid-Florida Conference double header on Tuesday afternoon against Seminole State College, holding the Raiders to just three hits in a 2-1 SF victory.
SF (18-16, 7-3 MFC) scored two runs in the second on back to back RBI hits by Yanira Sanchez and Celeste Bradshaw, giving Peres (7-6) all the support she would need.
The Raiders made things interesting in the seventh with a leadoff solo homerun, but Peres forced three groundouts to pick up the win.
Bradshaw finished 1-for-3with a double and a RBI, and Sanchez was 1-for-2 with a RBI.
In game two, Seminole jumped out to a 4-0 lead thanks in part to two costly SF errors that resulted in three of the four runs. Amber Maxey got ÌìÑĺ£½ÇÉçÇø on the board in the bottom of the sixth with a solo homerun and two batters later Erin Marsh hit a deep homerun to left to pull the Saints within one.
The Raiders answered with a homer in the seventh and shut down the SF bats in the bottom half of the inning to earn a split.
Maxey finished 1-for-2 with a homerun, and Marsh was 1-for-2 with a homerun and two RBI.
The Saints will host Miami University (Ohio) on Wednesday, March 26 at home in a single game at 2:30 PM.
