The Habaneros answered to force extra innings, but the Night Mares scored twice in the eighth and held off one final Mankato rally for the 10-9 win.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Fish finished with three hits and two RBIs, while Stangl added two hits and two RBIs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Game 1 was another close contest, as Sailor Hall (Pittsburgh State University) went the distance in the circle, allowing three earned runs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Olivia Pichardo (University of California) and Hall each recorded two hits, while Pichardo and Stangl homered. Izzy Vick (University of St. Thomas, MN) also delivered a two-run pinch-hit double during a late rally, but Madison held on for a 6-5 victory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The Habaneros totaled 20 hits across the doubleheader but were unable to hand the Night Mares their first loss of the season.
