The Wesleyan College softball team squared off against a strong Brenau University squad on Thursday afternoon, dropping both games of a doubleheader. The Golden Tigers moved to 18-2 for the season while the Pioneers fell to 0-8.
Brenau freshman Jenny Shepherd pitched a perfect game in her first collegiate outing, facing only 15 Pioneer batters and striking out six in the day's first game. Brenau piled up 18 hits in the five inning game, led by Katie Bolin's 4-5 outing. The Golden Tigers won 24-0.
The Pioneers lost the second game by a score of 18-0. Kayla Lumley broke up a no-hitter by Brenau's Sally Duggan with a late game single.
The Pioneers open Great South Athletic Conference action on Saturday when they travel to Piedmont College. They return to Macon on Monday to take on Agnes Scott in a doubleheader beginning at 5:00pm at the Mathews Athletic Complex.
