GENESEO, N.Y. - SUNY Geneseo dropped both ends of a doubleheader to visiting Alfred, Monday afternoon. The Knights fell, 7-3 in the opener, before coming up on the short end of a 8-4 decision in game-two.

GAME 1: ALFRED 7, GENESEO 3
Geneseo junior catcher Jami Cohen went 2-for-3 with a RBI, while junior shortstop Sami Brown finished 2-for-3 with a double, but it was Alfred overcoming an early 2-0 deficit to earn the game-one victory, 7-3.

Geneseo got on the board with a pair of runs in the first inning on a sacrifice fly by first-year first baseman Abby Dennett that scored junior designated player Ashley Fillmore, who had led off the game with a single to right. Brown, who followed Fillmore's hit with a double to left and advanced to third on Dennett's sacrifice, scored on a wild pitch for the Knights' second run. 

Alfred answered with a pair of runs in the top of a third inning that included two Knights' errors, and took the lead for good on a home run in the fifth inning by catcher Jasmine Picini, who finished 3-for-4 in the game. Alfred would put the game away with a four-run six inning that included a two-run double by Nicole Maher, who finished 3-for-5 with a run scored in the victory. 

Cohen notched an RBI single in the Geneseo half of the sixth for the game's final run. 

Geneseo sophomore pitcher Katie Brennan took the loss, allowing eight hits and four earned runs in five innings of work. Alfred's Alison Wickwire improved to 9-2, scattering eight hits and allowing two earned runs on the game. 

GAME 2: ALFRED 8, GENESEO 4
Four Geneseo errors would again be the story as the Saxons made up a one-run deficit with five unearned runs in the sixth inning to earn the sweep. 

The teams traded runs in the first inning as the Knights plated a run on a two-out RBI single by sophomore designated player Cat Krok.

Alfred would score a run in the second inning on back-to-back wild pitches, and another in the third on a RBI double by left fielder Samijo Scheer before Geneseo answered with two runs in the bottom of the third.

Dennett dropped a single down the right field line and advanced to second after the right fielder had trouble fielding the ball. Senior third baseman Elise Porreca followed with a single through the right side to score Dennett before Krok singled to left. After a ground out by junior pitcher Katie Muller advanced both runners, sophomore second baseman Courtney Budynas singled through the right side to score Porreca. 

Geneseo took a 4-3 lead in the fourth inning after Fillmore hit a one-out single to center and Brown followed with a RBI double over the centefielder's head to score Fillmore. 

However, Alfred brought five unearned runs across in the sixth inning thanks to four hits and a pair of Geneseo errors to take control of the game. 

Muller was saddled with the loss, allowing eight runs (three earned) on seven hits while walking five and striking out two. Sophia Chiavatti picked up the complete-game victory despite yielding 11 hits and four runs for Alfred.
