ANNVILLE, Pa. -- The Elizabethtown College softball team and Lebanon Valley split on Saturday at the LVC Softball Park. The Blue Jays came from behind in game one to steal a victory and the Dutchmen did the same in game two to salvage the split. Emma Varrato and Sarah Personette each homered for E-town while Lindsey Fasolo had a team-high four RBIs in game one.

Game 1: Elizabethtown 6, Lebanon Valley 4
Lebanon Valley (12-10) scored a single run in the first and third innings and added two more in the fifth to take a 4-0 lead into the sixth.

Elizabethtown's (7-15) bats came alive in the latter innings. Fasolo hit her first of two run-scoring doubles with a two-bagger to center field in the top of the sixth to score Kady Johnson and cut the deficit to 4-1. Alyssa Wilkinson singled in Fasolo to make it 4-2. Brinley Schmidt's RBI single to center scored Wilkinson and E-town was down a run going into the seventh.

Fasolo found herself at the plate with the bases loaded. The sophomore unloaded them with one swing, a bases-clearing double to right center that gave the Jays the lead at 6-4.

Amber Sergas came on to pitch the seventh and worked her way through a jam to get all three outs without a run scoring and earning her first save of the season. LVC had the bases loaded with two outs, but a ground out to Madeline Hamilton ended the game as the Blue Jays snapped their losing streak.

Game 2: Lebanon Valley 8, Elizabethtown 6
The second contest of the day between the two schools was a mirror image of the first, only the team leading to start and the team making the comeback were reversed.

Elizabethtown was out to a lead right away after Emma Varrato's RBI double to center. Christina Dark added two more runs to the lead with a double to right field in the first and EC was up 3-0.

Personette smacked a solo home run in the third inning to up the lead to 4-0. Varrato hit her first dinger of the season in the fourth, a two-run shot, with Taylor Herman on as the Blue Jays opened the game up to 6-0.

Lebanon Valley used a three-run fourth to halve the lead. A two-run home in the fifth got LVC within a run and in the sixth, the Dutchmen tacked on an additional three runs to take the lead 8-6.

The Jays went down in order in the seventh as Lebanon Valley salvaged the split.

The softball team will host Muhlenberg on Thursday, April 5, at 3 and 5 p.m.
