Softball drops weekend series despite strong start
After a strong performance in the first game of the conference series, Creighton softball dropped a 1-2 decision against Georgetown in the first league play of the season.
After the series, the Hoyas held a 9-22 record.
The series started slow before an explosive sixth inning for the Bluejays in the first game.
Starting with a sacrifice fly to drive in sophomore outfielder Courtney Sandell, the team went onto score 12 runs, 11 coming with two outs in the inning.
The runs included two solo homers and a grand slam by senior infielder Jayci Foster.
Coach Brent Vigness noted the players’ consistency as key in keeping the streak going to close the game.
