Lourdes returned home to Pacesetter Park for the first time in three weeks on Saturday, but dropped a doubleheader to Indiana Tech 6-3 and 3-2, with game two going 11 innings.
 
Indiana Tech jumped on top in the opening inning of game one, scoring on a bases loaded walk, but Lourdes would answer one inning later.  In the second, Hayley Roberts (Brownstown, Mich./Woodhaven H.S.) tripled and scored on a sacrifice fly from Taylor Tafelski (Perrysburg, Ohio/Perrysburg H.S.) to knot the game at one.
 
The Gray Wolves took advantage of a Warrior error in the third, scoring a pair of unearned runs.  Taylor Genzman (Saint Clair Shores, Mich./Lakeview H.S.) singled home one run and Megan Mosiniak (Swanton, Ohio/Evergreen H.S.) gave Lourdes the lead with a RBI single.
 
Single runs in the fourth and fifth allowed Indiana Tech to tie the game at three and a two-out two-run triple by Caitlyn Walker in the seventh put the Warriors on top for good
 
Lourdes had 10 hits in game one, including two from both Bre Megyesi (Whitehouse, Ohio/Anthony Wayne H.S.) and Genzman, but the Gray Wolves stranded eight runners on base.
 
"I'm disappointed we had a lot of missed opportunities in the opener," head coach Jo Ann Gordon said.  "We didn't accomplish the little things we needed to do to win the game."
 
Jamie Klips earned the win (2-3) in the circle for Indiana Tech, allowing just one earned run and eight hits in six innings of work.  Kloee Cuckler (Barberton, Ohio/Barberton H.S.) suffered the loss (2-2), allowing the three seventh inning runs as part of her two innings in the circle.
 
Game two was scoreless into the fifth inning when Lourdes plated a pair of runs.  Megyesi tripled home Hillary West (Walbridge, Ohio/Lake H.S.) and scored one batter later on a single by Jaime Newman (Edgerton, Ohio/Edgerton H.S.). 
 
Indiana Tech (13-21, 2-4 WHAC) tied the game in the top of the sixth on a two-out double by Alexis Vargo, the only two runs Marissa Kostick (Saint Charles, Mich./Saint Charles H.S.) would allow in nine innings of work.
 
"Marissa did a really nice job," Gordon stated.  "Game two was a pitcher's duel and they got the clutch hits.  We didn't take advantage of our opportunities."
 
The Warriors broke through in the 11^th, taking advantage of a pair of Lourdes errors to help score the go ahead run.
 
Vargo earned the win in the circle, giving up just three hits and three walks in 6.1 innings of scoreless relief.  Brooke Gallaher (Oregon, Ohio/Clay H.S.) suffered the loss, allowing the unearned run in the 11^th inning.
 
Megyesi, Newman, and Mosiniak had two hits each for the Gray Wolves, as the top three in the Lourdes lineup accounted for six of the team's eight hits.
 
Lourdes (9-15, 0-4 WHAC) will look to bounce back on Sunday afternoon as the Gray Wolves entertain Northwestern Ohio.  First pitch is set for 1 p.m. at Pacesetter Park.
