\n\tTwo bases loaded walks drawn by Samantha Kelly<\/a> in back-to-back innings put the Jaspers on top by two early in the second frame.
\n\tNatalye DeBus<\/a> followed with a sacrifice fly to score Isabella Coulman<\/a> and increase the run column to three.
\n\tNew Haven fired back in the next three consecutive innings, slashing the deficit to one by the end of the third, and a groundout RBI knotting up the contest at three-all.
\n\tTrueman of the Chargers singled to center field with a runner on third, giving the hosts their first lead of the day.
\n\tIn the top half of the sixth, a wild pitch to Coulman allowed Jamie Falotico<\/a> to score from third and tie the game back up.\u00a0
\n\tAs Lainey Brown<\/a> got to third base immediately following a fielding error in the seventh, a fielder’s choice from Kaitlyn Moody<\/a> allowed the Jaspers to retake the advantage at 5-4 heading into the bottom half.\u00a0
\n\tTwo singles put runners on first and second with two outs, as DeBus, who had come in relief, retired two of her first four batters.
\n\tTrueman came back with a double down the right field line, scoring both runners and ending the matinee.
<\/p>\n
\n\tSimilar to the earlier session, Manhattan put runs on the board right away, as a Sophia Kiseloski<\/a> single scored Brianna Estevez<\/a> to break the ice in the first frame.
\n\tNew Haven exploded in the second frame, as a tying single from Bella Chenet started it off.
\n\tAfter another single from Bri Pellicone\u00a0with the bases loaded, an error in the outfield brought her all the way to third, scoring all of the other runners before Pellicone was gunned down at home plate to prevent an inside-the-park round tripper.
\n\tDeBus showed her versatility in the fifth, as after quieting the Charger bats for the last two innings, she launched a ball over the left field fence to score Kelly and bring the margin down to one in favor of the hosts.
\n\tThe fifth became to the Jaspers what the second was to New Haven, as a Brown double and Falotico single changed the game from trailing to winning in the span of four batters.
\n\tEstevez forced another bases-loaded walk to add some insurance to their lead.
\n\tThat final run became important, as an RBI groundout\u00a0in the home half became the last score, with the Green and White securing the split with a 6-5 final score.
<\/p>\n
\n\tFreshman utility player Natalye DeBus<\/a>\u00a0showed the range of her talents on Wednesday, tallying three RBI while pitching in both games, going the distance in the nightcap for her first win of the season.
\n\tSenior utility player Sophia Kiseloski<\/a> and infielder Jamie Falotico<\/a> tied for the team lead in hits with four on the day.
\n\tDeBus had the most impressive showing in game one as well, allowing two earned runs on three hits while fanning one.
