Box Score

Waterville, Maine – UMaine-Farmington's softball team battled #1 seed Thomas College to extra innings on Friday morning in the North Atlantic Conference (NAC) softball tournament.

HOW IT HAPPENED

  • Haley Holt started things off with a double to center field to score Bailey Robbins and Kayleigh Oberg but the play was ruled a fielding error in the top of the first to get the Beavers on the board early.
  • In the bottom of the fifth, Lauren Guppy doubled down the left field line scoring Katie Taylor followed by a triple by Bailey Dunphy to score Guppy to tie the game up at two each.
  • Alyssa Dillan roped a double to center field in the top of the sixth to score Justice Merrill to give the Beavers a 3-2 lead.
