Bergeron Breaks Record...Wildcats Sweep Ladies



Louisiana College softball took on their in-state rival Centenary College on Tuesday night in a doubleheader at Wildcat Park. The Wildcats would sweep the doubleheader with 10-3 and 2-1 wins over the Ladies. The wins extend the Wildcats' winning streak to six and pushed them to 12-5 on the season.
 
Game 1
 
The first game of the day got off to a sloppy start, for both teams with errors in both the top and bottom of the innings leading to four unearned runs between the two teams. The Wildcats scored their pair of runs on a throwing error at first and a sacrifice fly from Abby Sterling that plated Briley Johnston.
 
The pitchers and defense would settle down after that first inning but the Wildcats would begin to pull away in the third when Taylor Hammock brought Shelby Bergeron in on an RBI groundout. LC starter Cameron Crochet retired eight batters in a row and gave the LC offense the chance to push the lead even more.
 
A base hit and a throwing error allowed two more runs to score in the fourth and a third came in on an RBI groundout from Johnston making it 6-2 after four innings. Centenary got a run back in the fifth, but that would be the last threat they would muster in the game.
 
The Wildcats almost ended the game early via the run-rule in the bottom of the fifth with two doubles to start the inning; Haley Vezinat's plating the first run of the inning. A double steal added another and a Sami Walters base hit made it 9-3 Wildcats. Shaye Tredinich made it 10-3 with an RBI single up the middle but the game-winning run would be left at third at the end of the inning.
 
Neither team would threaten in the sixth or seventh and the Wildcats would close out the game with the 10-3 win. While the game ended up being a big win for the Wildcats as a team it was an even bigger moment for one of the Wildcat seniors.
 
Leadoff batter Shelby Bergeron became the Wildcats all-time leading base stealer swiping her 78thbase after reaching on a bunt single in the bottom of the first. She took over the spot from Stephanie Jaeger and added to her new record later in the game with another steal in the third.
 
Game 2
 
The second game of the day ended up being tightly contested throughout the night with the Wildcats clinging to a slim lead the entire time and needing a clutch defensive play to secure the win at the end.
 
The Wildcats took the early lead in the bottom of the first on an Abby Sterling base hit to right. They would go up 2-0 in the second on a double steal as Samantha Cetta took second, forcing a throw down, allowing Sami Walters to scoot home easily for the insurance run.
 
Centenary threatened to tie the game in the third but a spot on throw to third from Peyton Eschette cut the runner down trying to steal. After 11 straight outs from both teams , Centenary would catch a break after a ground out to first and a wild throw trying to get the runner at second went all the way to left field wall, allowed the Ladies to get within one after four and a half innings.
 
The game stayed at 2-1 after six innings, with Madison Dykes going out to try and finish her first complete game of the season. A 1-out single and throwing error put the tying run in scoring position at second. A bunt single moved her to third and after a steal, put the go-ahead run at second. On a shallow fly ball to left, Briley Johnston came racing in for the diving catch and was able to double up the runner at third to end the game, giving the Wildcats the dramatic 2-1 victory.
 
The Wildcats will travel to Clarksville, Ark this weekend for their third American Southwest Conference road series of the season as they take on the University of the Ozarks Friday and Saturday.
