Against RIT, Macalester took the lead early in the first inning with sophomore Julia Carpenter (Stevensville, Mich./Lakeshore) scoring on a passed ball. After a scoreless second inning, junior pitcher Sophie Migacz (McHenry, Ill./McHenry West) doubled home senior Katja McKiernan (Los Angeles, Calif./Marymount) to make the score 2-0.

In the second game of the day the Scots went up 1-0 in the first as first year Kate Lawhead (Battle Ground, Wash./Prairie) doubled to left field, sending Carpenter across home plate. Lawhead has now had a hit in each of the last three games. The Rams scored three runs in the bottom of the first to make the score 3-1, then added two more runs in the sixth while keeping Macalester off the scoreboard the rest of the way.
