George Mason 2, Delaware 1 April 26, 2003   FAIRFAX, VA -- George Mason moved into a tie with Delaware in the Colonial Athletic Association softball standings and gained the tie-breaker advantage over the Blue Hens with a 2-1 win Sunday afternoon. Delaware (16-18-1 overall) and George Mason (21-19 overall) are both 6-6 in CAA action this season, but the Patriots won 2-of-3 in the weekend series. Towson entered Sunday's action with a 5-5 mark and was slated to face Drexel (1-9 CAA) in a doubleheader. Hofstra (8-1) and James Madison (6-4) were also playing a doubleheader on Sunday. The top four teams advance to the CAA Tournament May 9-11. Next weekend, the final of the regular season, Delaware will host Towson for three games, while George Mason will travel to James Madison. Drexel also hosts Hofstra. The Patriots scored single runs in the third and fourth innings off Delaware starter Jenn Joseph (10-7). In the third, a one out double by Stacy James got things started. A ground out moved James to third before being plated on a single by Kim Braxton. An inning later, the Patriots manufactured a run when Amanda Ayers led off the inning with a hit by pitch. She moved to second on a sacrifice bunt and third on a ground out. Jen Clawson then followed with an infield single, which scored Ayers. Delaware cut the lead in half when Laura Streets hit her seventh home run of the season, a solo blast to right, with two outs in the top of the seventh. However, Rene Leveque got Laurie Erickson to line out to first base to end the game. Leveque surrendered just two hits in the complete game effort. She struck out four and did not walk a batter. Delaware hosts Rutgers on Wednesday for a non-conference doubleheader beginning at 3 p.m.   Delaware vs George Mason (Apr 27, 2003) Box score Play-by-Play Box score U. of Delaware Softball Delaware at George Mason Apr 27, 2003 at Fairfax, VA (George Mason Field) Delaware 1 (16-18-1,6-6) Player AB R H RBI BB SO PO A LOB ------------------------------------------------------ Joseph, Jenn p........... 3 0 0 0 0 0 5 2 0 Pastic, Kelley rf........ 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 May, Brooke ph.......... 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 Gilkins, Jenny dh........ 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Streets, Laura ss........ 3 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 0 Erickson, Laurie c....... 3 0 0 0 0 2 4 0 0 Winslow, Liz 1b.......... 2 0 1 0 0 0 5 1 0 Wrenn, Heather pr....... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Basilio, Melissa 3b...... 2 0 0 0 0 0 1 4 1 Lowrey, Kinsey 2b........ 2 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 Lavandero, Sarai cf...... 2 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 Gardner, Lauren lf....... 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 Jones, Lindsay p........ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 Totals................... 23 1 2 1 0 4 18 10 1 George Mason 2 (24-20,6-6) Player AB R H RBI BB SO PO A LOB ------------------------------------------------------ James ss................. 2 1 1 0 1 0 1 2 1 Hartman 2b............... 3 0 0 0 0 1 2 0 0 Braxton 1b............... 3 0 1 1 0 0 6 0 0 Schultz 3b............... 3 0 1 0 0 1 1 2 1 Galecki lf............... 2 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 2 Ayers c.................. 2 1 0 0 0 0 6 0 0 Hrycyna dh............... 2 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 Fox rf................... 2 0 0 0 0 1 2 0 1 Clawson cf............... 2 0 1 1 0 0 2 0 0 Leveque p................ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 Totals................... 21 2 4 2 2 4 21 5 5 Score by Innings R H E ----------------------------------------- Delaware............ 000 000 1 - 1 2 0 George Mason........ 001 100 X - 2 4 0 ----------------------------------------- LOB - Delaware 1; George Mason 5. 2B - Winslow; James.
