EVANSVILLE, Ind. – Three University of Evansville softball players put forth stellar efforts to lead the Purple Aces to a 9-1 series-clinching win over Loyola on Sunday afternoon inside Cooper Stadium.
 
Freshman Haley Woolf went 2-3 with four runs batted in to lead the way while Lindsay Renneisen scored four runs while walking twice.  Izzy Vetter made the start in the circle, tossing a complete game one-hitter to lead UE (12-16, 2-4 MVC) to the 9-1 win over the Ramblers (16-9, 1-5 MVC).

Riding the momentum from their first MVC win on Saturday, the Aces got off to a fast start on Sunday, plating four runs in the bottom of the first.  Eryn Gould led off with a walk before Halie Fain followed up with a single.  After Lindsay Renneisen walked, Haley Woolf grounded out to score Gould for the first run of the game.
 
Katie McLean reached on an error that scored the second run before Bailee Bostic capped off the scoring with a 2-RBI single to put UE up 4-0.
 
The Aces were able to load the bases back up in the second frame.  Woolf added two more RBI to her tally with a double to right as part of a 3-run inning to push the lead to 7-0.  With one out in the top of the third, rain forced a delay of 2 hours and 45 minutes before play resumed at 3 p.m.
 
Loyola grabbed their first run of the game in the top of the fourth, ending the no-hit and shutout bid by Izzy Vetter.  Haley Woolf got that run right back, knocking in her fourth run of the day with a double.  Her hit sent Renneisen home.  Evansville clinched the game in the bottom of the sixth, loading the bases with no outs.  Pinch hitter McKenzie Johnson hit a line shot to right field for a game-ending single that plated the clinching run.
 
UE had 10 hits on the day with Eryn Gould, Allison Daggett and Woolf posting two apiece.  Gould and Halie Fain plated two runs each.  Vetter gave up just one hit in the circle while fanning five Rambler batters to take her sixth win of the season.
 
Next up for the Aces is a home game against Butler on Tuesday at 5 p.m.
