MOBILE, Ala. – A two-out, two-RBI double from sophomore Cheyanne Lyon and timely pitching from junior Melanie Coyne lifted the ULM softball team to a 2-1 victory over Georgia Southern Wednesday afternoon inside Jaguar Field in game one of the Sun Belt Conference Tournament.
After scoring one run in the UL Lafayette series, the Warhawks (24-32) scored their two pivotal runs in the first inning. The rally began with two outs as senior Amye Barre walked and junior Melanie Coyne beat out an infield chopper to shortstop Alesha Mann.
A wild pitch advanced Barre and Coyne with sophomore Cheyanne Lyon at the plate.
