JACKSON, Tenn. - 3/6/2010 - The Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ (Tenn.) University softball team saw their seven game winning streak come to an end as they dropped two games on Saturday. Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ lost 8-6 to William Woods (Mo.) University and then fell 6-2 to Columbia (Mo.) College. Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ is now 10-4 on the season after sweeping the same two teams on Friday.

In the first game, Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ led 4-1 and 6-3, before giving up five runs in the sixth inning to drop the game. Keaton Kirk (3-1) took the loss allowing seven runs, five earned in 5.2 innings of work. Kirk did have eight strikeouts. Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ managed 13 hits, but left nine runners on base and committed two costly errors. Amber Hayes hit the game’s only homer with a three-run shot in the third. Lindsey Landreneau led the way with a 4-for-4 game.

In the second game, Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ could not recover from another five-spot as Columbia broke open a scoreless game with five runs in the fourth. Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ added a run in the fourth and another in the seven, but it wasn’t enough in the 6-2 loss. Brooke Thomas (8-2) allowed 10 hits, but just one of the six runs was earned in the complete game loss. Thomas led with two of Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµâ€™s five hits.

Up next for Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ will be another tournament hosted by Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ on Friday and Saturday, March 12-13.
