CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. --- Chattanooga closed out the non-conference portion of its schedule Wednesday evening with a 2-0 win over Tennessee Tech in its final game at Frost Stadium this season.

Camryn Cernuto opened up the sixth with a single up the middle and stole second. Acelynn Sellers had a hard hit to short that was stopped on a diving play to keep the ball infield, but Cernuto slid in safe at third and Sellers took second.

Baileigh Pitts took a 2-2 count to right field for a sac fly, scoring Cernuto and putting Sellers 60 feet closer to home. Jayce Purdy was all over the second pitch she saw, belting a shot to deep center that hit the fence, scoring Sellers to make it 2-0.

Purdy went 2-for-3 with a double and an RBI. Sellers was 2-for-3 and scored the Mocs second run. Cernuto was 1-for-2 with a run scored and a sacrifice hit. Pitts was 1-for-1, driving in the game winning RBI.
