HIRAM, Ohio--The Westminster College softball team earned a non-conference split Wednesday at regional power Hiram College. The Terriers posted a walkoff 3-2 victory in game one before the Titans secured a 2-1 11-inning game two win. 

Westminster moved to 21-8 this season while Hiram's overall record sits at 16-11. 

Game 1: Hiram 3, Westminster 2
Junior designed player Elizabeth Malczak (Grove City, Pa. | Grove City) led off the second inning with a triple before sophomore catcher Mia Meholick (Dubois, Pa. | Dubois Central Catholic) roped a run-scoring double down the left field line to give Westminster a 1-0 lead. Senior left fielder Ashley Wire (Poland, Ohio | Poland Seminary) delivered an RBI single in the third to up the lead to 2-0. Hiram, scoreless through six innings, tied the game at 2-2 after a two-run double by Danielle Robles. Larissa Baeza, who reached on a one-out single earlier in the inning, scored the game-winning run by scoring on Giselle Bahena's fielders choice. 

Graduate student Madison Brown (Lisbon, Ohio | East Liverpool) fell to 9-5 with the game one loss. She allowed three runs (3 earned) on seven hits with five strikeouts. 

Senior shortstop Alexis Yates (Oakdale, Pa. | South Fayette) went 2-for-4 with a double, a triple and a run scored. Malczak finished 2-for-3 with a double, a triple and a run scored.

Game 2: Westminster 2, Hiram 1 (11 inn.)
Malczak found her groove in the circle in game two. She allowed an unearned run on four hits with three strikeouts in the 11-inning, complete game win. Her 11 innings pitched are tied for the fifth-most in Division III this season. 

Malczak improved to 11-2 this season with the game two win. 

Senior center fielder Brooke Atkins (New Castle, Pa. | Laurel), the ghost runner in the top of the 10th, scoring on a two-out wild pitch to break the scoreless tie. Hiram evened the score in the bottom of the 10th. In the 11th Meholick singled down the right field line to score Malczak, the ghost runner.
