FORT MYERS, Fla. – Florida Gulf Coast softball (4-5) wound up on the wrong side of a pitcher's duel, losing 3-1 to Louisiana Monroe (5-4) in Saturday's nightcap.
ULM scored two runs in the top of the seventh off of three walks and a single to take a 3-1 lead. The Eagles got two runners on in the bottom half of the frame, but were unable to capitalize.
Tegan Gabrielse gave up just one run through six innings pitched in the best outing of her freshman campaign so far. She worked out of bases-loaded jams in both the fifth and sixth without allowing a run, and struck out three batters on the night.
Skylar Waggoner, Ashanti McDade and Dakota Lake (2-1) combined to only allow one run for the Warhawks. Waggoner gave up the lone Eagles run on a
Kiki Daniels RBI double in the fifth inning.
Sophie Wylie notched a pair of hits in the game for FGCU and scored on Daniels' fifth inning double.
Olivia Black and Daniels each reached twice via a hit and walk for the Eagles.
Next, FGCU continues its February homestand against FAU at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, February 17 at 6 p.m.
