Sycamores Drop Second Game of the Series to Missouri State, 6-3

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. – Indiana State softball dropped the second game of the weekend series against Missouri State on Saturday afternoon, falling 6-3 at Price Field.

The Bears came out swinging, putting up a five-spot in the top of the first inning. A leadoff walk to Merced and a single by Derryberry set the tone early. 

After a strikeout, Perales singled to load the bases before Baber delivered a two-RBI double to left center. 

McLaughlin added an RBI single, and following a walk to Rowland, the Sycamores turned to Megan Asher in relief of starter Lauren Sackett.

Vaughan capped the inning with a two-run single to make it 5-0 Missouri State.

Indiana State responded quickly in the bottom of the frame. Madison Poulson led off with a single and advanced to second on an error. 

After Livi Colip reached on a fielder's choice, Hannah Welch drove in Poulson with a single to left to put the Sycamores on the board.

The Sycamore bats stayed active in the third. Poulson notched her second hit of the game to lead off the inning, and Morgan Goodrich followed with a single of her own, advancing to second on a left field error and driving in Poulson.

Colip then laced an RBI double to right field to bring in Goodrich, cutting the Missouri State lead to 5-3.

Missouri State added an insurance run in the top of the sixth. 

A single by Gerardy and a walk to Vaughan setup Merced, who drove in Gerardy with a base hit to left. 

Indiana State brought in Cassi Newbanks, and she closed the frame with a flyout, but the Bears held on to a 6-3 advantage.

Despite solid offensive efforts from Poulson (3-for-3, 2 runs) and Colip (2-for-3, RBI), the Sycamores couldn't complete the comeback.

Up Next: Indiana State and Missouri State will wrap up the series on Sunday at noon.
