UW-STEVENS POINT 4, ELMHURST 3 - A pair of errors and the inability to plate the game-winning or game-tying runs in extra innings doomed the Bluejays in a 4-3 nine inning loss to UW-Stevens Point.

Elmhurst jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first inning when Lindsey Mikulecky and Bukowski both singled home runs.

Elmhurst evened the score in the sixth inning when Carly Kaminke singled home the game-tying run.

After the Pointers failed to score in the top of the eighth inning, Elmhurst had a chance to win the game in the bottom of the frame. The Bluejays put runners at second and third with just one out, but Katie Hruby lined into a double play to end the scoring threat.

UW-Stevens Point pushed home a run in the ninth inning on a double by Nelson, taking a 4-3 lead in the process. In the bottom of the ninth, Elmhurst had runners in scoring position twice but failed to even the score. Hruby was caught in a rundown between third and home for the Bluejays first out and Sarah Cademartori was picked off of third to end the Bluejays' scoring threat.

Cademartori was a perfect 5-for-5 at the plate to lead the Bluejays' offense in the loss.
