Herd outmatched at Carolina Classic, NO. 20 South Carolina

Marshall softball traveled to South Carolina this past weekend for the Carolina Classic—a five-game tournament in which the Herd went 1-4—and is now 8-12 on the season.

South Carolina competed as host institution, while Liberty and George Washington joined Marshall as visiting schools. The Herd played two contests on day one of the tournament, splitting the day with a 2-0 win over George Washington and a 6-1 loss to Liberty.

“We didn’t have the timely hit today, but we were able to manufacture runs,” Marshall head coach Jen Steele said after the George Washington game. “Our defense did a great job playing relaxed and making routine plays.
