CLINTON, N.Y. – Hamilton College's Emma Tansky '25 racked up six strikeouts in 6.2 scoreless innings of relief in Game 2, and the Continentals split a NESCAC doubleheader with the Bates College Bobcats at Hamilton's Loop Road Athletic Complex on Saturday afternoon.

  • Bates (11-9, 5-5) rallied with seven runs in the eighth inning for an 8-1 victory in the opener.

  • Bates evened the score in the sixth inning on back-to-back doubles with one out.
  • The Continentals left two runners in scoring position in the bottom of the inning. 
  • The Bobcats plated seven runs in the eighth on three hits, three hit batters, a walk and an infield error.
  • The Continentals threatened in the bottom half as they loaded the bases with one out on three singles. Bates got out of the jam by forcing out a runner at home on a ground ball to shortstop and getting a strikeout.

How It Happened
  • Bates jumped out to a 2-0 lead in its first at-bat on a pair of singles and two walks. 
  • Hamilton cut its deficit in half in the bottom of the fourth inning on a run-scoring double by Worzel with two outs. Priante led off the inning with a walk and stole second.  
  • The Continentals took the lead with two outs in the fifth inning. Tansky hit an infield single, Katlynn McGivney '23 knocked a hit up the middle and Priante kept the offense hot with a single through the right side that plated Tansky.
