JACKSONVILLE, Fla. \u2013 Florida Gulf Coast (21-33) saw its season end with a 10-2 loss to No. 3 seed North Alabama (36-15) in the ASUN Championship.<\/p>\n
The Eagles’ offensive production came from Olivia Black<\/a> in her final career game. The ASUN Scholar-Athlete of the Year doubled to left center field to drive in her fellow seniors in Nikki Gibson<\/a> and Sietske Drijvers<\/a> that tied the game at 2-2.

Katie Simon threw a complete game for UNA, allowing five hits and the two runs off Black’s double.<\/p>\n Dover’s home run came in the bottom of the first to give the Lions an early lead. FGCU responded with Black’s RBI double, but North Alabama added on with Rouse’s home run in the fourth inning. The Lions tacked on another run in the fourth with a sacrifice fly to take a 5-2 lead.<\/p>\n UNA kept the momentum in its dugout and poured on in the sixth, scoring five runs on five hits and a walk to win the game 10-2.<\/p>\n The loss marked the end of the careers of the eight FGCU seniors \u2013 Black, Gibson, Tiffany Meek<\/a>, Emily Chiarella<\/a>, Maddox Thomas<\/a>, Drijvers, Grace Taylor<\/a> and Parris Wiggs<\/a>.
