ANDERSON, S.C. -- The Anderson University softball team took two games from Conference Carolinas-foe Queens University on Wednesday, winning the first game 7-3 and taking the second game 10-2 in just four and a half innings of play at Smethers Field. Anderson, which jumped up to second place in the Conference Carolinas standings after the doubleheader, moved to 19-13 overall and 9-3 in league play, while dropping the Royals to 20-19 overall and 11-4. The opening game saw the Trojans grab an early 1-0 lead off of a Kasey King single that brought shortstop Meredith Knox across the plate, the senior's 27th RBI on the season. Royals' pitcher Chantel Dodge settled in thereafter, but two innings later Amber Duncan walked with two outs in the bottom of the fourth and AU's next batter, Kinsley Durham, sent a high home run ball over the left field fence to increase the Anderson lead to 3-0. The Trojans went to the bottom of the sixth inning with a 4-0 lead and the second batter of the inning, Cameron White, lifted a single into left field. Two batters later, after an Amber Sutherland walk, Elisa Sebastyan hit an RBI-single that put the Trojans up 5-0. Meredith Knox then finished out the high-scoring inning with a two-RBI double that hit the center field wall to put the Trojans up 7-0. After a seventh inning rally attempt from the Royals, Anderson picked up the game one win. Senior pitcher Katie Van Gieson (6-1) completed the game for the Trojans giving up two runs off of eight hits in another spectacular effort. Meredith Knox went three for four, with all three hits being scored as doubles. In the second game Anderson quickly went down 2-0 during the first inning of play, but Trojans pitcher Donya Cobb settled down, putting up zeros on the scoreboard. It took the Trojans batters one time through the order to get in a groove and rallied in the third inning, sparked by a one-out bunt single from Amber Sutherland. Two batters later, Meredith Knox doubled to deep left-center field to score Sutherland. Three batters later, Amber Duncan doubled to put two more runs on the board in favor of the Trojans. In the fourth inning, a Meredith Knox three-run home run sailed over the left-field wall to put Anderson up 7-2. Five batters later, after singles from Emily Monteith and Kinsley Durham, Cameron White smashed a double back to the center field wall to bring in the final three runs of the game. Cobb (4-2), a senior, tossed a crafty complete game for Anderson, giving up two runs on six hits. Senior left fielder Elisa Sebastyan went three for three and Meredith Knox drove in four as she went two for three. The Trojans take the field again on Saturday as they face first place Limestone in a conference doubleheader. The first game will get underway at 3 pm at Smether's field.
