Softball Falls to Bridgeport, UMSL at PFX Spring Games

WINTER HAVEN, Fla. – The Golden Eagle softball team fell in a pair of games at the PFX Spring Games on Thursday, dropping a tight 5-4 decision to Bridgeport in the early game before losing 11-0 to Missouri-St. Louis in the nightcap.  Clarion (0-8) will close the tournament out on Friday with games against Stonehill and Holy Family.
 
The opening game against the Knights saw the Golden Eagles erase a 3-1 deficit to take a 4-3 lead in the top of the fifth inning.  Rebecca Kelley tortured Bridgeport pitcher Miranda Hillman with a 4-for-4 game, including two RBIs and a run scored.  Kelley hit her second home run of the season in the top of the third inning to tie the score at 3-3.  Her home run was the second of a back-to-back stretch, as Jessica Cartia also added her second dinger of the year in the same half-inning.  Chelsea Liroff put the Golden Eagles ahead 4-3 in the sixth inning, roping a single down the left field line to bring Beka McClymonds around on a score.
 
Laura Sadowski (0-2) entered the game in relief of Kelley and threw 4.1 innings, allowing two runs on four hits in that span.  She posted a series of zeroes on the scoreboard until the sixth inning, when Taylor Yates hit a two-run home run to put Bridgeport ahead 5-4.  Clarion had the go-ahead run at the plate in the seventh after Kelley led the inning off with a single, but Maycee Shumaker hit into a 6-4-3 double play to clear the bases.  Haley Pszyk drew a two-out walk to keep the fight alive, but Liroff struck out to end the threat and the game.
 
The game against the Tritons started out close but turned into a rout as it went on, as Missouri-St. Louis led by just 1-0 until the top of the fourth inning.  Clarion had opportunities to take the lead early on, including a bases-loaded situation in the bottom of the first inning.  The Golden Eagles were unable to bring anyone across, though, and neither team scored again until the fourth inning.  The Tritons homered three times in the inning to build a 5-0 lead, and then tacked on six more runs in the sixth inning to seal the win.
