The Bluejays opened tournament play on Wednesday with a game against Butler, as well, and earned a 4-2 win. The team’s second game resulted in a 3-1 loss to second-seeded UConn, however, and it will need a win today to avoid elimination. Against the Huskies, Sydney Potter brought in the team’s only run of the game with an RBI single in the second inning, but the scoring stopped there. Although the team produced six hits in the game, it struggled to bring runners home, stranding eight on base. Natalia Puchino was pegged with the loss after pitching six innings and striking out five batters.
When St. John’s and Creighton met during conference play this season, the Bluejays won the first two games of the series before falling in a big 10-0 shutout in the series finale.
