Caupto’s walk-off highlights day three at the PFX Tournament

Becca Caputo’s walk-off single in the bottom of the eighth highlighted a 1-1 day at day three of the PFX Tournament.

CLERMONT, Fl. – Becca Caputo (Williamsport, Pa./Jersey Shore) hit a 2-run walk-off single to left field to give the Lock Haven University softball team (5-7) a 4-3 win over Hillsdale (4-11) as LHU went 1-1 on the day at day three of the PFX Tournament in Clermont Fl. Earlier in the day, The Bald Eagles fell to Fairmont State (5-6) 3-0.
                       
Game 1: L, 3-0
 
The Bald Eagles fell in the first game of day three, 3-0 to Fairmont State.
 
Faith Ceely (Troy, Pa./Troy) and Mikayla Ruppert (Bethlehem, Pa./Liberty) tallied hits for LHU in the game.
 
Kayla Gee (Williamsport, Pa./Loyalsock) pitched well for the Bald Eagles, going the distance while allowing eight hits and striking out four.
                                    
Game 2: W, 4-3
 
Lock Haven got off to a fast start, grabbing a quick 1-0 lead when Ruppert drilled a shot to right center for a base hit that scored Ceely in the bottom of the first inning.
 
In the fourth inning, LHU executed a double steal to perfection as Bree Hilty (Lock Haven, Pa./Central Mountain) grabbed the attention of Hillsdale while Casey Carpenter (Moscow, Pa./North Pocono) raced home and scored as Hilty stole second base to give the Haven the 2-0 lead.
 
Hillsdale was able to rally and knot the game up at 2-2 in the seventh inning to send the game to extra innings. HC was then able to take a 3-2 lead in the top of the eighth.
 
The 3-2 deficit set up Caputo's heroics.
 
With runners on second and third, Caputo drilled a fastball through the left side of the infield that scored both runners and sent LHU into a frenzy as they grabbed the 4-3 win in dramatic fashion.
 
Ruppert led the way offensively, going 3-4 at the plate with an RBI. Caputo finished up 2-4 with two RBI's while Ceely ended 2-4 with two runs scored.
 
Carpenter, Hilty and Rachel Gricoski (Frackville, Pa./North Schuylkill) all tallied hits for the Bald Eagles.
 
Bekah Slattery (Douglasville, Pa./Daniel Boone) was dominant on the mound, throwing all eight innings while allowing just four hits and striking out 12.
