Charleston, V. Va.—The cardiac kids do it again, as the University of Charleston softball team defeats Shippensburg University 4-3 in walk off fashion in game one and 7-2 in game two. This is the first time UC has been to and won the NCAA Division II Atlantic Regional since 2016.

Highlights:
With her nineteenth home run in the top of the seventh inning in game two, Isabella Andujar has established the new Mountain East Conference (MEC) single-season home run record.

Hannah Rose (3-7, , home run, double, 4 RBI, 2 runs, 1 walk), Isabella Andujar (3-6, home run, 2 runs, 1 RBI, 2 walks), Allysa Lake (3-8, home run, 2 RBI, 2 runs), Jeritza Montero (1-6, 2 RBI, 1 run, 1 walk), Brionna Bowman (2-5, 1 run, 1 walk) and Morgan Hoppe (1-3, 1 RBI, 2 walks)

Game One: 4 UC, 3 SU
Shippensburg put two quick runs on the board on a pair of singles in the first frame of the ballgame. Charleston then cut the deficit in half in the second inning when Hoppe roped one up the middle to score Montero, who previously reached on a walk.

The Raiders held onto the lead until Rose walked, advanced to third on a single by Andujar and tied the game on a Montero groundout to shortstop. The game remained tied at 2-2 until SU managed to pull ahead 3-2 in the top of the sixth inning on a pair of singles and an error.

Despite only having two hits to their name going into the bottom of the seventh inning, Charleston managed to walk it off and force the if-necessary game. Bowman led off the inning with a single and Hoppe reached on a walk to put two runners in scoring position with no outs. The Raiders managed to get one out on a fielder's choice, but a single by Rose tied it up at 3-3. Lake went on to walk it off with another single to left field to score Brittny Ogg, who previously reached on a fielder's choice.

Starting pitcher Brianna McCown improves her record to 28-4, as she picked up the win in game one with five strikeouts and eight hits allowed in seven innings pitched.

Game Two: 7 UC, 2 SU
Senior Danielle Bauer (13-5) was outstanding in the circle for the Golden Eagles with six strikeouts and only four hits and two runs allowed in seven innings pitched. She is credited with the win.

Charleston's offense was cooking in game two, as Rose, Lake and Andujar blasted home runs in the third, fourth and seventh innings. Rose went 2-for-4 with three runs-batted-in (RBI) and one run scored, while Andujar and Lake both went 2-for-4 with two runs scored and one RBI. With her nineteenth home run of the season in the seventh inning, Andujar also established a new Mountain East Conference (MEC) single-season home run record.
