SIOUX CENTER, Iowa\u00a0 (UJ<\/a>)\u00a0 —\u00a0The UJ softball team lost a pair of games Weds evening against Dordt University, 4-3 in 10 innings and 3-0.<\/p>\n

The Defenders scored twice in the bottom of the tenth to take a 4-3 win in game one.<\/p>\n

Jamestown scored first, as Gracie Fisher<\/a> (SO\/Bemidji, Minn.) led off the top of the second with a walk. A sacrifice bunt by Katie Reisdorfer<\/a> (SR\/Fresno, Calif.) moved Fisher to second, and then with two outs, Skylar Thorpe<\/a> (FR\/Petaluma, Calif.) tripled to score Fisher.<\/p>\n

Dordt tied the game with a run in the bottom of the fourth, but the Jimmies retook the lead in the top of the sixth. LaLa Romero<\/a> (FR\/Surprise, Ariz.) walked and then stole second base. With two out, Reisdorfer doubled to left field, easily allowing Romero to come home to make it 2-1.<\/p>\n

The lead was short-lived as the Defenders pushed one run home in the bottom of the sixth, tying the game at 2-2. That score held until the top of the tenth, when Jamestown retook the lead. Thorpe started the inning as the runner at second base. With two out, Ally Battistoni<\/a> (FR\/Elizabeth, Colo.)’s infield single hit the dirt and stuck, allowing Battistoni to reach safely, and Thorpe, who ran on contact, continued all the way around the bases for the go-ahead run.<\/p>\n

Kat Miska<\/a> (SR\/Pequot Lakes, Minn.) went the distance for Jamestown, pitching 9 2\/3 innings with 10 strikeouts. Reisdorfer had two of UJ’s four hits.<\/p>\n

In game two, the Jimmies were held to four hits–a Katie Reisdorfer<\/a> double in the second, a LaLa Romero<\/a> single in the sixth, and singles by Reisdorfer and Skylar Thorpe<\/a> in the seventh.<\/p>\n

Dordt scored twice in the bottom of the second, then added another run in the fifth.<\/p>\n

Katie Merchant<\/a> (JR\/South Haven, Minn.) pitched a complete game for UJ, striking out four and allowing three unearned runs.<\/p>\n

Jamestown is back in action Saturday when they take on Doane (Neb.) University in Aberdeen, S.D., beginning at 12 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
