COLUMBIA, Ky. - Lindsey Wilson used the long ball to pin a couple of losses on the Lady Tigers, dumping CU into third place in the conference standings.



The Saturday doubleheader sweep by the Lady Blue Raiders improved their season mark to 41-9,  18-4 MSC and left Campbellsville at 32-16, 14-5 MSC.

Lindsey Wilson 6, Campbellsville 1

Lindsey pounded four homers in the first game, three with two outs and Cara Law (19-3) shut down the CU offense on six hits.

Kristin Benton's sixth-inning homer was the only score for CU in game one. The Lady Tigers had runners on second and third twice, but could not get a timely hit.

CU starter Courtney Turpin (17-9) was greeted with back-to-back, two-out  solo home runs by Emily Priar and Jamie Williams in the first inning and by a leadoff tater by Jane Egiazarova in the second.

Lindsey scored three more times in the fifth when Andrea Whelan clubbed a two-out, three-run shot to left.

CU had the same number of hits in the game as LWC (6), but only two in the same inning one occasion.

Lindsey Wilson 9, Campbellsville 1

Campbellsville tied the score 1-1 in the top of the fourth of game two when Jennifer England hit into an error at short, scoring Bailey Dillender.

But that was as close as the Lady Tigers would get. Lindsey Wilson scored five runs in the fifth on four hits and two CU errors. The inning was punctuated by Jordan Gilland's three-run homer.

In the bottom of the sixth after Courtney Turpin, who relieved starter Taylor Wroe, retired the first two batters on strikes, LWC got three more runs. Back-to-back walks got Turpin in trouble and then she issued three straight singles to Priar, Williams and Whelan.

CU had one hit in every inning. Benton had a two-hit game, one a double, and Dillender also had a double. England, Heather Oakley and Kacie Vincent all had singles.

Wroe (14-2) was cruising along with a two-hitter until the fifth when four hits and a walk got her in trouble.

Campbellsville will travel to Georgetown on Tuesday for a 3 p.m. doubleheader.
