Box Score 2 ELSAH, ILL. -- Principia ends tough outing with two losses on the day against conference rival Eureka College.
In the first game Principia started out strong, but couldn't sustain the momentum—losing 15-2. A calamity of self-inflicted miscues gave Eureka the upper hand. Jessy MacMullin had a strong performance at the plate going 3 for 3 . Tayna and
Yulia Marquardt each contributed a hit.
In the second game, Principia never got unwound and lost handily, 18-1. Errors and walks were again the nemesis. Sam Bronkar was an offense force in this one. She got the team's only hit and it was a beauty, a line shot to left center for a triple. She later scored on a passed ball for the lone Principia run.
Principia's record at this early juncture in the season is 3-10. The Panthers take the field next on Tuesday at Stephens College. First pitch is scheduled for 5:00 pm.
