Softball Falls to No. 20 Auburn in Jane B. Moore Memorial Tournament Finale

AUBURN– The Chattanooga Mocs' softball team dropped the final game of the Jane B. Moore Memorial Tournament in Auburn, Ala. on Sunday afternoon to the 20th-ranked Auburn Tigers, 12-1 in five innings.

The Tigers improved to 21-1 overall and the Mocs fell to 9-10.

Auburn struck first with six runs on five hits in the first, including a two-run homer to cap off the inning. Izzy Alley struck out three in the inning, but one reached on a wild pitch, allowing the Tigers' inning to continue.

After the hosts plated two unearned runs in the second, UTC got on the board in the third on a Kailey Snell RBI triple over the left fielder. At the end of the third, Auburn led 8-1.

The Tigers scored four more in the fourth to take its 12-1 lead.

Olivia Lipari and Liz Rodebaugh combined with Snell for Chattanooga's three hits.

Auburn's Maddie Pinta got the start for the Tigers and picked up her fifth win of the weekend. She went three innings and allowed one run on two hits with five strikeouts.
