Trinity Blanked by Hosting Millsaps Sunday

Trinity (3-14) managed just four hits in the loss, and fell behind 5-0 after just two innings on defense.  In addition to the five-run second, Millsaps scored once in the fifth and twice in the sixth to set up the eight-run rule after the bottom of the sixth. 

Millsaps is in the SCAC East Division, meaning that the game does not count in the conference standings.

Christina Carni was 2-3 in the game, accounting for half of Trinity's hits in the game.  Jamie Williams also nabbed a hit for the Tigers, as did first-year outfielder Teresa Greppi.  Williams had a two-out double in the third for Trinity's only extra-base hit.

Helen Thompson was charged with the loss, giving up nine hits and striking out three batters in the game. 

Trinity will face LaGrange College this afternoon to finish off the three-day tournament.  The Tigers will return home next weekend against Rhodes College, opening up SCAC play.
