 CAPTAINS REMAINED UNDEFEATED WITH 8-4 VICTORY OVER MONARCHS

  BURLINGTON, N.C. - The Christopher Newport
 Captains stayed in the winner’s bracket of the
 2008 USA South Tournament by downing
 Methodist, 8-4. 

 Methodist took the early lead, with Lesley
 Hewitt scoring on a wild pitch in the bottom of
 the second inning, but that would be all of the
 offense they could muster. 

 Christopher Newport came back with three
 runs in the top of the third inning. The Captains
 had RBI-singles from Katie Moyers, Mary
 Kennedy, and Taylor Morgan. 

 The Captains added four runs in the fifth
 inning.  Megan Morris got things started with a
 triple.  Moyers knocked her in with an RBI-
 single.  Margit Severin got on base with a
 double and Harper moved on base with a
 single.  Thompson knocked them both in with a double. 

 In the sixth inning, the Captains added another run with an RBI-single by Morris after
 Ashley Mani reached on a triple.

 Methodist didn’t give up, pushing 3 across in the bottom of the 7th with a double by
 Megan Hutson.

 Christopher Newport will face the winner of Averett and Greensboro while Methodist will
 play Peace.
