Trinity Drops Both Games of Saturday Doubleheader

 

San Antonio - The Tiger softball team lost its second straight doubleheader on Saturday afternoon, getting swept by Schreiner University.

Trinity (0-4) lost 6-3 in the opener and 5-3 in the second game.  The Tigers trailed 6-0 heading into the bottom of the seventh of game one, but managed three runs on four hits in the bottom of the inning to try and make a comeback. 

In game two, neither team could plate a run until the fifth inning, and Schreiner was once again out in front with a two-run inning.  The Tigers answered with a run in the bottom of the inning, but Schreiner immediately scored three more in the sixth to go up 5-1.  Trinity did score twice in the bottom of the sixth, but could get nothing more against Schreiner.

Annie Clarke (0-1) took the loss in the opener, giving up four earned runs - six total - on nine hits in her first complete game.  She gave up one walk and struck out three.  Brittany Losey (0-2) allowed five runs - only three of which were earned - on nine hits in the second game, recording four strikeouts.

Jamie Williams had two hits in the opening game, which included one of three seventh-inning doubles for the Tigers.  Alexa Calderon and Christina Carni also had doubles in the inning - their only hits of the game.

Williams collected another hit in the second game, and was one of three players to drive in a run in game two.  Rachel Garrett and Caitlin Richards also grabbed RBI for the Tigers.  Richards and Carni cracked doubles, as did Teresa Greppi.

Trinity will face off against Concordia (TX) University next Saturday, continuing its homestand to start the season.  The Tigers will open up the road portion of the schedule on Wednesday, February 25, at Texas Lutheran University.
