Senior Caitlin Fitzgerald hit
a team-high .538 in helping the Eagles to a 2-2 mark in four
games. Fitzgerald recorded seven hits in 13 plate appearances
and tied for the team lead with four RBIs as Emory split
doubleheaders against Piedmont College and LaGrange
College.
Fitzgerald went 3-for-4 and scored a run in a 3-2 setback in the
first game of a twinbill vs. Piedmont College before coming through
with a pair of hits and three RBIs in a 10-3 win in the
nightcap. Fitzgerald accounted for all of her RBIs in that
game with a bases-loaded clearing double that keyed a seven-run
uprising in the eighth inning in a 10-3 victory. She then
went 1-for-2 in each game against LaGrange, also chipping in one
sacrifice hit in each contest, and registered one RBI in a 4-3
second-game triumph.
So far this season, Fitzgerald has started 39 of 40 games and is
hitting at a .397 clip. She is tied for the team lead with 10
doubles and is second with 32 RBIs.
