Softball Finishes Chico State Series with Split, Clinches Trip to Stockton

CHICO, Calif. – Chico State rode a wave of Senior Day excitement to a Saturday and series split with the No. 12-ranked Humboldt State softball program. The Lumberjacks won game one of the twinbill 6-2 before dropping an extra-inning series finale showdown, 2-1.

HSU returns to the North Coast with a 24-8 conference record and a 38-12 overall mark.
 
The Green and Gold began the day sitting atop the CCAA standings with rival Cal State Monterey Bay, but slipped to the No. 2 spot following an Otter sweep of Cal State Stanislaus. The Jacks host the Otters with a CCAA regular season title on the line next weekend.
 
After starting from behind in both of Friday's games, the Jacks took the early edge in Saturday's first contest. Hannah Williams drove in a pair with a two-run single in the first inning.
 
Chico State evened the score with a run in the bottom of the first and another in the third, but Alison McKibbon helped HSU regain the lead in the fourth.
 
McKibbon hit her second home run in as many days when she smacked a go-ahead solo shot in the fourth inning. The Mission Viejo, Calif., product finished the game with a pair of hits.
 
Katie Obbema recorded her 18th victory of the season and scattered nine hits across seven innings of work. Obbema walked four and struck out four.
 
The Jacks threatened in the fifth, but came up with timely hitting to add to its lead in the three-run sixth.
 
Sidney Roberts drove in a run on a sacrifice fly following a pair of singles to put HSU ahead by two, 4-2. The Wildcats' third baseman booted a potential third out and the Jacks plated their fifth and sixth runs.
 
Game two featured a pitchers' duel between Madison Williams and Chico State's Brooke Langeloh. The pair allowed one run apiece through the first seven innings.
 
Langeloh was relieved in the seventh and replaced by Cailin Garmon, but Williams went the distance for HSU.
 
Ashley Huff led off the 10th with a triple and scored the game-winning run on a two-out wild pitch.
