ALAMOSA, Colo. - Colorado School of Mines split their doubleheader with Adams State, coming back from a close 3-2 loss to win 9-2 in the series finale.

GAME ONE - Adams State 3, Mines 2
Adams State earned a close win over Mines in the morning game, edging the Orediggers 3-2.

Both teams held leads in the game, but Kaytlynn Johnson's home run in the sixth put the Grizzlies ahead for good.

Katie Leiker got Mines on the board in the first, scoring Kara Walling with a single, but Kalin Johnson tied it up in the third with a fielder's choice in the third. ASU took the lead for the firstt ime in the fifth when Taylor Roberts reached on an error, allowing Johnson to score, but Boston Ludlow's double in the sixth plated Leiker and made it a new ballgame at 2-2.

Johnson put the hosts ahead in the sixth with a lead-off home run, and Mines couldn't get anything going in the top of the seventh as ASU held on to win.

Lauren Murphy (9-8) struck out six in the win. Maddie Rogers (3-4) was the hard-luck loser, allowing only two earned and striking out five over six innings.

GAME TWO - Mines 9, Adams State 2
Mines went ahead with a big first inning and never trailed, beating Adams State 9-2 in the series finale.

Hallie Smith (9-5) won her second game of the weekend, working a two-run complete game backed by nine runs off seven hits. Mines took advantage of five ASU errors in the game.

Mines plated three in the first off three Grizzly errors as Paige Noehring and Kara Walling scored on miscues, and Katie Leiker came across as Kara Jones reached on a dropped fly.

April Riggins' two-run inside-the-park home run in the first made it 3-2, but that would be ASU's only runs of the game. Dani Valerio singled in Pua Fujinaga in the fourth, and Jones drove in Leiker in the fifth to make it 5-2.
