Sarah Espe was the highlight of the contest in the first game for Broome. Espe dealt eight strikeouts from the circle and fielded her position on another play on her way to being responsible for nine of the Hornets' 15 recorded outs in the game. The home team in that contest, Broome played the field for all five innings. At the dish, Espe was also 2-2, accounting for both of Broome's hits.
Hannah Aton had the only hit in game 2 of the doubleheader for the Hornets and stole a base after she got on. Jozzlyn Hall started in the circle for Broome and was replaced by Alana Espinoza, who was the pitcher in the circle for all of the outs that Broome recorded in the contest. She struck out three hitters and walked just one over 4.0 innings pitched. Acting as the visitor in game 2, Broome did not take the field in the fifth inning.
Following Tuesday's 0-2 mark, Broome falls to 3-13 on the season. The Hornets will be home again on Thursday night for a doubleheader vs Jefferson CC, taking place under the lights at 5:00 PM and 7:00 PM at Greenlight Networks Grand Slam Park.
