Friday

Game 1 – Liberty 10, Marist 5

With Elena Escobar and Maddie Pleasants, pitchers of the year in their respective conferences going head-to-head in the circle, the Liberty bats came out on top to advance to the winner’s bracket. 

After Maddie Gore's error at first base, Liberty opened up the scoring, followed by a three-run blast by Brynn McManus. That lead was silenced when Miah McDonald turned around in the third and ripped a three-run homer of her own, putting Marist within one run. 

Liberty fought back with insurance runs and a bases-clearing double from Doerr pushed the Flames to victory. 

Just three outs shy of completing her 15th game of the season, Escobar gave up back-to-back home runs. She finished her outing with eight strikeouts. 

Game 2 – Texas A&M 18, Saint Francis 0

Sydney Lessentine and Sidne Peters combined in the circle for a no-hitter while the Aggies’ bats run-ruled the Red Flash in five innings. 

Two batters in and the No. 1 seed was already on the board. A five-run first inning rattled Saint Francis, but the Aggies refused to stop there. A three-run blast from Amari Harper in the second extended the lead and propelled the rest of the roster to combine in a 10-run inning. 

Texas A&M finished the outing with 15 RBIs. 

Saturday

Game 3 – Liberty 8, Texas A&M 5

A late two-out sixth inning rally led Liberty to take down the No.1 seed. Alyssa Henault’s two-RBI single tied the game and immediately after, KK Madrey sent a two-run bomb to right field to grab the lead. 

The Flames were all over Emiley Kennedy, who despite working through quite a few jams, completed seven innings. Elena Escobar went the distance for Liberty with two strikeouts.

Game 4 – Marist 8, Saint Francis 0

Marist picked up its first-ever win in the NCAA tournament in walk-off run-rule fashion. Miah McDonald was the star of the show, contributing to the Red Foxes’ success early with a home run in the third. Her 28th home run to center field in the sixth sealed the deal. 

Kiley Myers was nothing but dominant in the circle, throwing a complete game with four strikeouts 

Game 5 – Texas A&M 17, Marist 4

Texas A&M shrugged off the upsetting loss to Liberty and meant nothing but business at the plate against the Red Foxes. Back-to-back jacks from Mya Perez and Mac Barbara started a rally in the fourth, triggering the run rule effect. With two outs and bases loaded, Marist just couldn’t find a way out. Amari Harper ripped her first career grand slam to extend the already vast lead.

Sunday

Game 6 – Texas A&M 14 , Liberty 11

Up 11-7 in the seventh inning after storming back thanks to a Mya Perez grand slam and a Mac Barbara ripped a solo shot, the Aggies found themselves in a major jam. Liberty rallied to score four runs to tie the game. Pitching was an issue all outing for the Aggies and after walking in the tying run, Sydney Lessentine was put in the circle for Kate Munnerlynn. With bases loaded and two outs, KK Madrey flied out to send the game to extra innings. 

The Aggies had one last chance to save their season, and they used eighth-inning magic to do so. 

Kennedy Powell and Koko Wooley’s RBIs stole the lead back and Lessentine held the Flames down to push the if-necessary game.

Game 7 – Liberty 6, Texas A&M 5

In more back-and-fourth madness, the Liberty Flames advance to the Super Regionals for the first time in program history. 

Rachel Roupe’s second home run of the day put Liberty on the board and when Emiley Kennedy entered the game, Savannah Jessie ripped a two-run home run to left field to tie the game. A pitching change to Grace Sparks gave Roupe another opportunity to show her power at the plate. A three-run home run to left field took the lead. 

Texas A&M threatened in the sixth inning and came within one run, but sophomore Kaylan Yoder was electric in the circle for the save.
