West Chester was led by Sara Ercolani with four hits over the two games and Sarah Walasavage, Emily Maseth and Bri Garber accounted for three hits apiece.
After three scoreless innings in game one, West Chester plated three runs in the bottom of the 4th inning. A double by Ercolani double to right center scored Walasavage from second for the 1-0 lead. Another Golden Rams double, this time by Maseth scoring Caroline Adams and Ercolani for a 3-0 advantage.
West Chester’s Cat Hammer stroked a single through the right side of the Bowie State defense to push Garber across the dish. Pinch hitter Courtney Stump’s ground out to second scored Wallasavage for a 5-0 lead after five innings.
The Bulldogs scored its lone run in the top of 6th inning following a solo homer by Fenner, her collegiate first, but Bowie State trailed 5-1. Bowie State managed just two hits in the opener and Ochoa took the loss in the circle. Ochoa gave up 11 hits but struck out four.
The Golden Rams added their final three runs of game one in their portion of the 6th inning on three hits (all singles) to account for the 8-1 final.
In game two, West Chester put two on the board in the in the top of the first inning and broke the game open in the bottom of the 2nd inning following a Wallasavage grand slam.
