WHAT THEY'RE SAYING:
"The team played very well today," Barry head coach Danielle Penner said. "I can't say enough about the pitching. Both Anie (Palmeiro) and Christie (Falcon) threw amazing today. And we keep finding ways to score. I'm very excited about the direction we're going."
SUMMARY:
GAME ONE:
	- B-3rd - Barry jumped on top 1-0 as Anieliese Palmeiro scored when FSC second baseman Leah Pemberton mishandled the cutout throw on Alayna Gallagher's steal of second.
 
	- T-4th - The Mocs knotted the game at 1-1 with an unearned run of their own in the fourth on a sacrifice fly by Zierra Flodman.
 
	- B-4th - The wheels came off for the Mocs in the fourth inning. They cycled through three pitchers, none of whom could command the strike zone. The first five Buccaneers drew walks, then after a sacrifice fly for Cheyanne Head, Gallagher drew a sixth walk. Lynsey Duncan drove in a run with a ground out and Jasmine Harris delivered a base knock for another as Barry scored five in the inning.
 
	- B-5th - The Mocs' pitching woes continued in the fifth. Kristina Osorio and Avery Cotterill delivered base hits to start the inning and, after a ground out, both moved up on a passed ball by Mocs catcher Flodman. Palmeiro had an infield single that just ticked off the glove of shortstop Makayla Deuberry. Head drew a walk to load the bases. Gallagher's walk drove in Cotterill and Palmeiro came home on walk by Duncan.
 
SUMMARY:
GAME ONE:
	- B-6th - Barry got the only two runs of the game with a two-out rally in the sixth. Duncan doubled over the head of center fielder Shannon Bell and Harris followed with a double to left center. Madison Vonhagel knocked in Harris with a single to center.
 
NOTEWORTHY:
	- Palmeiro (4-2) picked up the win in game one, allowing just an unearned run on two hits. She also went 2-for-2 at the plate and scored three runs.
 
	- Christie Falcon (4-8) won for the third straight game. She tossed a four-hit shutout, her first of the season, and did not issue a walk for the second straight start.
 
ON THE HORIZON:
The Bucs are off until Friday, Mar. 24 when they visit the Tampa Spartans in the first game of a three-game conference set.
