The LSU softball team ended its series losing streak this weekend, taking the first two games against Liberty. But it couldn’t get the win in Sunday’s Game 3, falling 3-1 in the regular-season finale, which also marked Senior Day.
The Flames drew first blood with a two-out RBI double off Raelin Chaffin in the second. They did more damage in the third with a two-run homer to take a 3-0 lead.
LSU tried to rally as it stranded two in the fifth, though it did get a run back in the sixth off an RBI single from Raeleen Gutierrez. The Tigers had their chance in the seventh but ultimately left a trio of runners on base as Liberty clinched the win.
The Tigers will now head to Auburn, Alabama, for the SEC tournament, where they are the No. 8 seed. They will begin their run on Wednesday at 10 a.m. CT against No. 9-seeded Alabama.
