NEW HAVEN, Conn. – The Dartmouth softball team split their doubleheader with Yale on Saturday afternoon from New Haven. The Big Green won the first game 5-1 and the Bulldogs won the second 5-2.

Jensin Hall started the first game, earning her ninth win on the season. She recorded 11 strikeouts and only allowed three hits. She struck out at least one batter in every inning but one. Alaana Panu went 2-3 and knocked in one RBI for the Big Green.

GAME 1: Dartmouth 5, Yale 1
Three strikeouts from Hall took care of the top of the first inning but Yale jumped on the board first when a run came home in the bottom of the second, 1-0 Bulldogs.

The game went scoreless through the next few innings. A hot line drive was caught by Leila Hennessy in the bottom of the fifth that led to a double play to keep the Bulldogs lead at 1-0.

An explosive top of the sixth for Dartmouth allowed them to jump ahead of the Bulldogs. It started with a Justice Malone double, and she advanced to third on an overthrow. Olivia Schramm dropped a bunt that allowed Malone to slide under the tag at home and scored. Marilyn Beauvais singled and that was followed by fielder's choice plays that got Hennessy and Jenna Brown on base. Lauren Ben-Ezra and Panu singled to force in two more RBIs, 4-1 Big Green.

Malone picked things back up in the top of the seventh with a single. A Schramm sacrifice bunt moved her over to second base. Wilson knocked a single into right field to score Malone, 5-1 Big Green.

The last chance from Yale was unsuccessful with Hall forcing three up and three down. Dartmouth took the first game 5-1.

GAME 2: Yale 5, Dartmouth 2
Yale once again took an early lead in the first inning, 1-0 Bulldogs.

Beauvais ripped a double for the team's first hit of the game in the top of the fourth but she was left stranded.

A two out double from Yale scored two and the Bulldogs went ahead 3-0. Rachel McCarroll was replaced in the circle by Isabel Kirby after facing 21 batters. The Bulldogs were able to add one more run before the inning was over, 4-0 Yale.

A hard fought at bat from Hennessy led to a walk to put her on base. Singles from Ben-Ezra, Faby Serna and Malone allowed for two runs to score and the Big Green cut their deficit in half, 4-2 Bulldogs.

Yale added a run in the bottom of the fifth, 5-2 and eventually took the victory with that score.
