BOBCATS END 2019 WITH VICTORY

LAKE WALES, Fla. – The 2019 regular season ended for the St. Thomas University Bobcats Softball team (25-19, 10-14 TSC) regular season completed, following a doubleheader split against Warner University (26-14, 12-12 TSC) at Daly Field late on Friday night.
 
Notable Facts
  • Bobcats had their first 20-win season since 2014.
  • They finished 7th in the conference, one win away from claiming the sixth spot.
  • It is the highest winning percentage since 2007 (.584)
Accomplishments
  • Emily Santos finished sixth in the NAIA in earned runs allowed for the season (12)
  • Melody Grafals ends her STU career with 10 home runs, with a career-best, five in 2019. Then ten home runs, place Grafals in a tie for the most home runs in program history since 2004 (Carissa Albizu, 2010-2012)
Game One
 
Bobcat Starters: Alliyah Sands (3B), GiGi Santos (LF), Melody Grafals (2B), Jordan Kruempel (DP), Emily Santos (CF), Tyenna Colon (SS), Rebeka Ehrenthal (RF), Alexis Castroman (1B), Kaitlin Spalding (SP), Dayma Pla (C)
 
Game Notes
  • Warner scored a run in the first and third inning to jump out to an early 2-0 lead.
  • The Bobcats had some offense going in the top of the third having the bases loaded with one away but were unable to capitalize.
  • WU added on five more runs in the fifth to extend their lead 7-0.
  • STU exploded for three runs in the top of the sixth and cut the deficit, 7-3.
  • That would be all that the Bobcats would get on the board in the first game as they fell 8-3.
 
Game Two
 
Bobcat Starters: Sands (3B), G. Santos (LF), Delaware (2B), E. Santos (CF), Colon (SS), Grafals ©, Acevedo (SP), Manieri (RF), Castroman (1B)
 
Game Notes
  • The Bobcats opened up the scoring with a five-run first inning.
  • Three straight singles off the bats of G. Santos, Delaware, and E. Santos led to the first run on the board.
  • Grafals then came up with a monster double to left center to bring in two more and take a 3-0 lead.
  • Acevedo then walked and drew chaos that brought in another two runs as the Royals made two costly errors.
  • Warner would score two runs of their own in the bottom half of the first to bring the game within three, 5-2.
  • The game would remain in a standstill for three solid innings.
  • The fifth produced a lot of offense on both sides as STU scored three in the top half and WU tied the game scoring six in the bottom half, 8-8.
  • Grafals and Acevedo would again be there driving force behind the runs.
  • St. Thomas would add two more in the top half of the sixth and it would be all the insurance that they need for the night to take home the 10-8 victory for the final time in 2019.
