NOTABLES (L, 5-14(6))
How it Happened: 
Offense for the Buccaneers arrived early when Martens was driven home after a walk from a pair of singles from Rieger and Porter.  Coleman-Tillman was walked to load the bases after the single and Croley drove in the second run of the day on a ground out.  The Bucs left the second inning up 2-1.  Chattanooga tied it up in the bottom of the third and captured a strong lead in the bottom of the fourth after a slew of walks and singles.  ETSU responded in the top of the fifth when Stonebraker doubled to drive in Stowell who reached on a fielders choice.  Rieger followed Stonebraker's double with her own, driving in Stonebraker to elevate the score to 4-7.  Porter then ground out to drive in the third run of the inning and the final run of the contest for the Bucs.  The Mocs then assumed control as the Bucs went through four pitchers on the day to limit the damage but ultimately ETSU fell 5-14 in six innings.
