Softball splits NESCAC doubleheader at Trinity

Beebe ’24 picks up second win of the weekend

HARTFORD, Conn. – Hamilton College's Natalie Beebe '24 allowed one run in five innings of relief and the Continentals' defense stood strong in a NESCAC doubleheader split with the Trinity College Bantams at the Trinity Softball Field on Sunday, March 24. 
 
Season Update
  • Hamilton (9-7, 3-1 NESCAC) has won four of its last five games.
  • Trinity (8-6, 1-1) was playing its NESCAC opener.

Game 1

 
How It Happened
  • Trinity struck first in the bottom of the third inning on a triple and a single.  
  • Hamilton took a 2-1 lead with two runs on two hits and two errors in the sixth. Alexis Mayer '26 reached second on an outfield error and scored on a throwing error on an infield single by Emma Tansky '25. Charlie Quinn '25 ripped a single through the right side and Alessandra Priante '24 loaded the bases on a ball that was knocked off the pitcher's foot. Natalie Beebe '24 drove in Tansky on a grounder to second. 
  • The Bantams countered with three runs on two hits, two walks and a sacrifice fly. Trinity was looking to widen its advantage with another run but Mayer showed off her speed and made a diving play in the right-center field gap that forced the runner to retreat back to third base. 
  • The Continentals had one final shot in the seventh and started strong with the first three batters reaching base. Sofia Santana '26, who hit a lead-off single, rounded the bases on a pair of wild pitches. Quinn re-loaded the bases with one out on the third walk of the inning. The Bantams worked themselves out of the jam with two ground ball outs. 
Notes
  • Santana led Hamilton at the plate with two hits. 
  • Mayer and Beebe hit singles.
  • Tansky struck out five batters in five-plus innings pitched.
  • Taylor Mikolajcz went 3-for-3 with two singles and a triple for the Bantams. 
  • Isabella Calagna plated a team-best two runs on one hit.
  • Gianna Tito drove in one run on one hit.
  • Tiffany Stowers collected her third win in the circle as she allowed two runs on five hits with no walks in 6.2 innings. 

Game 2

 
How It Happened
  • Hamilton took a 3-1 lead in the sixth on four hits. Mayer smacked a lead-off double to center and the Continentals had runners on the corners after Quinn singled through the left side. Alison Zorn '26 drove in Mayer on an infield single to the pitcher and Gabby Garrison '27 put Hamilton on top with a two-run single up the middle.
  • The Continentals added an insurance run in the seventh. Jordan Merklin '26 worked the count for a walk, quickly stole second base, advanced to third on a single up the middle by Taylor Santulli '25 and was driven in on a groundout by Mayer. 
  • Trinity had a runner at third base in the bottom half but Beebe's fourth strikeout ended the game. 
  • The Bantams had a runner on third in both the second and third innings but the Continentals brushed off the pressure and secured the third out. 
  • Trinity struck first with one run on two hits in the fourth. 
  • The Continentals kept knocking and nearly knotted the score in the fifth on a two-out triple by Merklin. 
Notes
  • Merklin went 2-for-3 with her second triple of the season and a walk. She leads Hamilton with eight stolen bases.  
  • Mayer leads the team with a .382 batting average and 14 runs batted in. 
  • Quinn tallied two hits. 
  • Tansky and Beebe contributed one hit apiece. 
  • Starting pitcher Teagan Graham '25 allowed three hits and walked four in three scoreless innings. 
  • Beebe (2-2) secured the win in the circle giving up just one run on three hits, one walk and fanning four batters in four innings pitched. 
  • Kennedy Rogers led the Bantams with two hits and a walk. 
  • Tito knocked in one run on her triple. 
  • Mikolajcz, Erin Steed and Abigail Alper had one hit each.
