Game 1 Box Score | Game 2 Box Score

WESTMINSTER, Md. – Senior Heather Sagaities (Hollidaysburg, Pa./Hollidaysburg) connected on a two-run home run in the top of the seventh to give visiting Gettysburg College a 5-3 lead in its season finale at McDaniel College, but the Green Terror rebounded in the home-half of the inning with a walk-off three run homer to pull out a 6-5 victory and complete a doubleheader Centennial Conference sweep of the Bullets. McDaniel also came back in the opener for a 3-1 decision.

In a back-and-forth battle in the nightcap, Gettysburg (13-18, 5-11 CC) took a 3-1 lead on a two-run single by Sagaities in the fifth inning. McDaniel (13-21, 7-9 CC) took advantage of a miscue by the Bullets in the bottom of the sixth inning to score two runs and knot the contest at 3-3.

Junior Erin Ober (Lutherville, Md./Dulaney) led off the seventh inning by drawing a walk and advanced to second on a sacrifice following a pitching change by the Green Terror. Sagaities welcomed the new pitcher to the game by stepping up to the plate and slamming her school-record tying 13th career homer and second of the spring to give the visitors a 5-3 edge.

Gettysburg picked up the opening out in the bottom of the seventh, but McDaniel notched up a single by Amanda Farr and a walk by Diana Rosemier to set the stage for senior Emily Trainor. Trainor picked an opportune time to hit her first longball of the season for the Green Terror, sending the hosts to the victory with a three-run shot.

Sophomore Beth McCullough (Ft. Wayne, Ind./Homestead) fell to 6-8 on the season for Gettysburg after posting six runs (four earned), four hits, seven walks, and two strikeouts.

The only offense generated by the Bullets in the opener came in the first inning as junior Nicole Yannotta (Whippany, N.J./Whippany Park) led off with a single and came around to score on a single by sophomore Sarah Woodbury (Audubon, Pa./Mt. St. Joseph Academy).

McDaniel tied the game in its half of the first and picked up single runs in the fourth and fifth innings to take the lead. Gettysburg had its chance to score in the contest, but the visitors stranded 10 total runners on the base paths, including two in their final three at bats.

Junior Kristy Rubino (Parsippany, N.J./Parsippany) fell to 7-9 with the loss. She surrendered three runs (two earned) on five hits and two walks, while striking out six. Rubino also closed the 2008 season with 421 career strikeouts – just five short of the Centennial Conference all-time mark.

Yannotta led Gettysburg in the opener with a 3-for-4 effort, while Sagaities went 2-for-4 with four RBI in the nightcap. Senior Abbe Miller (Spring City, Pa./Owen J. Roberts) ended her collegiate career with a strong effort at the plate, managing three hits and two runs over the twinbill. Ober picked up hits in both ends of set and scored twice, while junior Jessica Wallick (Chambersburg, Pa./Chambersburg) and sophomore Kara Kempski (Pittsford, N.Y./Pittsford Mendon) also reached base safely in both contests via hits, the former adding an RBI in game two.
