Trinity Finishes Day One With Loss to UT-Tyler

 

Tyler, Texas - The Tiger softball team had to settle for a split of today's games at the Easton Classic after losing to hosting UT-Tyler by a final of 9-1 on Saturday afternoon.

Trinity (1-3) fell behind early as UT-Tyler cracked a two-run homer in the first inning.  The Tigers answered with its own run in the bottom of the inning, but the team could muster no more runs.

Karen Fisher (0-1) took the loss, giving up three runs - two earned - on four hits.  Fisher struck out two batters in her four innings of work, walking just one.

Jamie Williams and Michelle Gossein each went 2-3 for the Tigers, while Gossein hit an RBI double to score Kate Wright for the team's only run.  Williams and Gossein also had two hits earlier today in a win over Mary Hardin-Baylor.

Trinity will face UT-Dallas and East Texas Baptist tomorrow afternoon, finishing off its part in the two-day tournament.  The Tigers open up the home portion of the schedule with a doubleheader on March 1, taking on Mary Hardin-Baylor.  Prior to that, though, Trinity will travel to play Schreiner in a Thursday evening doubleheader.
