TROY, ALA. – The Coastal Carolina softball team ended their season on Tuesday afternoon as they were outlasted, 8-6, by the ULM Warhawks in the first round of the 2021 Sun Belt Conference Softball Championship tournament at the Troy Softball Complex in Troy. Ala.
The two teams combined to leave 18 runners on base over the seven-inning contest. UL Monroe left 12 runners on base while the Chanticleers stranded six.
HOW IT HAPPENED:
Kandra Lamb got herself out of a first-inning jam and never looked back.
After striking out ULM’s leadoff hitter Jayden Mount and getting Alysia Anderson to fly out, Lamb walked Korie Kreps and Kennedy Page reached on an error. Lamb got out of the jam by having Kennedy Johnson hit into a fielder’s choice.
Lamb would keep the Warhawk bats silent as she gave up only one hit (a single to Jessica Williams in the second) as she picked up the win.
With Lamb dealing, Louisiana seized control at the plate by scoring four runs in the bottom of the third inning.
