Tigers lose softball home opener

CLEMSON – Too many runners left on base spoiled the home opener for the Clemson softball program.

Clemson left seven runners on base and couldn’t get the big hit in crunch time as Western Carolina defeated the Tigers 2-0 in the inaugural home game for the Clemson softball program. Clemson was 0-for-7 with runners in scoring position.

Valerie Cagle got the start and pitched well, surrendering two runs (one earned) in seven innings while striking out five and walking none. Hannah Goodwin had two hits for the Tigers. Savanah Rice got the win for Western Carolina, pitching the shutout.
