BATON ROUGE, La. – A pair of comeback attempts fell short as Troy fell to Louisiana Tech, 7-6, in the Trojans' finale of the LSU Invitational Sunday morning at LSU's Tiger Park.
Troy (13-5) rallied from a 3-0 deficit to take a 4-3 lead in the middle innings and brought the tying run to the plate in the bottom of the seventh inning after the Bulldogs (15-7) single runs in the fifth and sixth innings and twice in the seventh to grab a 7-4 advantage.
Anslee Finch gave the Trojans a glimmer of hope in the home half of the final frame as she deposited her team-leading fourth home run over the wall in left field to score Libby Baker, who kept the game alive with a two-out single.
