Box Score 2 ARCATA — The Warriors rebounded in game two of Saturday's doubleheader and pushed Humboldt State to extra innings before falling as HSU won all four games in the CCAA series.
After Humboldt State (18-9, 12-4 CCAA) won game one, 11-3, in five innings, Cal State Stanislaus jumped on the Lumberjacks early before HSU rallied in the late innings for the 5-2 win and series sweep.
Lauren Liming led the Warriors with a 2-for-2, 3 RBI game in Saturday's opener with a first-inning three-run home run. But that was all of Stanislaus' scoring as HSU scored five in the fifth to enforce the mercy rule.
In the nightcap, the Warriors (11-17, 6-14 CCAA) again scored first with a two-run double by Liming in the first inning. However, HSU scored in the first and tied it in the bottom of the seventh to force extra innings.
In the home half of the eighth, Hannah Williams hit a three-run walkoff homer to end the game.
Liming again led the team with a 1-for-3 game with 2 RBIs.
