Pinch-hitter Della Harrison lined a two-run, walkoff single with two outs in the bottom of the eighth inning to lift the The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga to a 6-5 win over Rutgers to open the Frost Classic at Jim Frost Stadium.
The Lady Mocs’ win gave coach Frank Reed his 800th career victory.
UTC trailed 3-1 in the bottom of the seventh when Kaiti Kelley hit a two-run hit to tie the game and send it to extra innings.
Brooke Loudermilk gave up two runs on a two-out hit in the top of the eighth, but the Lady Mocs rallied again in bottom half of the inning, capped by Harrison’s game-winning hit.
UTC will take on Kansas later Friday, and be back in action Saturday with games against Kentucky and Georgetown.
