How it Happened
- Anders started in the circle for Tech as the Jackets trailed early with back-to-back doubles that scored two runs for Clemson.
- Watts came in to relieve Anders after four batters faced in the first inning. With two runners on, Clemson hit a home run over center field, before three walks and a wild pitch forced Tech to trail by seven runs after the first.
- Furniss relieved Watts to start the second inning and helped the Jackets turn a double play to get two quick outs, but not without first surrendering one run.
- The freshman remained in the circle to start the third inning but surrendered three runs off three hits, one of which was a home run over right field, which brought Studebaker in.
- Studebaker immediately caught one Tiger swinging and went on to get the second out of the inning in the same way following another two runs scored from Clemson.
- The junior stayed in the circle to begin the fourth inning and faced four batters before Harris was sent in after the Tigers tallied another three runs. Harris helped Tech get two quick outs before recording her first career strikeout, with the batter going down swinging.
- Harris finished the game as Tech’s pitcher and recorded one final strikeout against seven batters. The Jackets surrendered two final runs off three hits and one error in the top of the fifth.
