Lady Govs softball swept in home opener by Miami RedHawks

Clarksville, Tenn. – Austin Peay State University opened the home part of its 2015 schedule with a pair of losses, Friday at Cheryl Holt Field, including being no-hit in the nightcap, as Miami (Ohio) won by scores of 13-2 and 9-0.

The no-hitter in Game 2 by Miami's Remy Edwards was the first against the Lady Govs (1-6) since Feb. 7, 2014, when Syracuse turned the trick at the University of South Alabama Mardi Gras Invitational.

Edwards (2-1) struck out nine, while walking four, with the Lady Govs best scoring chance coming in the bottom of the third inning, with Laurel Burroughs drawing a two-out walk and stealing second.

Morgan Hoeg, Sidney Hooper and Savanna Oliver were the other Lady Govs to reach base on walks.

Heather Norris (0-2) took the loss for Austin Peay, lasting only 1.1 innings, permitting seven first-inning runs – including four coming on a grand slam homer by Jenna Jones.

In Game 1, the Lady Govs (1-6) fell behind 7-0 after 3 1/2 innings before finally getting on the scoreboard in the bottom of the fourth.

Chandler Groves and Allie Blackwood got the inning going for APSU with back-to-back one-out singles, followed an out later by Erica Inagaki's RBI single to drive in Chandler.

Miami (5-2) led 8-1 when Austin Peay would pick up its final run of the game in the bottom of the fifth inning on a one-out home run by Laurel Burroughs – her second of the year.

Alexis Hill and Hoeg had the other hits in the game for Austin Peay.

The RedHawks closed out the game with five more runs in the top of the seventh for the 13-2 final.

Natalie Ayala (1-3) took the loss for Austin Peay, giving up five runs in 1.1 innings, while Amber Logemann (3-1) picked up the win – going six innings with 13 strikeouts and two walks.

Austin Peay is off until next weekend when they play host to its first home in-season home tournament since 2011 with the Governors Classic.

The Classic will run Friday, Saturday and Sunday with a tournament field that will include IP Fort Wayne, South Dakota State, East Tennessee and Wright State.

Austin Peay will open the classic at 10 a.m., Friday, versus IP Fort Wayne.
